It's a day adults and children can be excited about-- September 27 is National Chocolate Milk Day!
The decadent drink was invented by Sir Hans Sloane in 1687. Sloane, a doctor, praised the "health giving" qualities of chocolate milk.
Well, we all know that chocolate milk isn?t exactly diet food, but it can be healthier!
Try my recipe:
- 1 glass unsweetened almond milk
- 2 tbs. cocoa powder
- 2 tbs. honey
Stir cocoa and honey together. I usually make this in a larger batch and place in a plastic bottle similar to a store-bought chocolate syrup container. You can reuse an empty store-bought bottle as well.
Pour this mixture into milk, stir vigorously and voila! Deliciousness!
Almond milk has less sugar, fat and calories than cow?s milk, with more calcium and protein. The nutty flavor also just tastes great.
Chocolate milk can be also be made by adding a sweetened chocolate syrup in milk.
