# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • It's ready in under five minutes with zero cooking involved, making it perfect for those moments when you need an energy boost without the fuss.
  • The chocolate flavor is pure and honest without feeling overly sweet, so you can actually taste the quality of what you're drinking.
  • It works with any milk you have on hand, whether you're dairy-free, lactose-intolerant, or just prefer the creaminess of oat milk.
02 -
  • Whisking the Milo with hot water first is non-negotiable—trying to mix it directly into cold milk leaves you with clumpy, unsatisfying chocolate bits that refuse to blend.
  • Don't skip tasting the Milo mixture before adding milk, because once the cold milk is in, you've lost your window to adjust sweetness without making the drink watery.
03 -
  • Whisk the Milo with hot water until it's completely smooth and there's not a trace of graininess—this thirty-second step determines whether your drink feels premium or rushed.
  • Fill your glass generously with ice before adding anything else, because cold ice is your secret weapon for keeping the drink from becoming diluted chocolate water by the time you're halfway through.
