In case you haven’t stepped outside today, let me fill you in: It’s really cold outside. It’s also really gross and wet. Just one of those days that you shouldn’t leave the house unless you absolute have to. Seriously, just stay put.

But, if you really have to leave the house, it’s certainly proper weather for a creamy, piping cup of hot chocolate. Luckily, the folks at Pitango Gelato are giving away free hot chocolate to Zipcar members.

Simply go to one of Pitango’s three D.C. locations—in Penn Quarter, Logan Circle, and Capitol Hill—flash your Zipcar member card and—boom!—free hot chocolate! Your day has just been made.

(Unless, of course, you’re not a Zipcar member, which means you have to pay for your hot chocolate LIKE EVERYONE ELSE).
