Questions about Lowfat chocolate milk
How do you make low-fat chocolate milk at home?
Whisk cocoa powder with a little warm milk to make a smooth paste, then gradually whisk in cold low-fat milk. Sweeten to taste and chill; mixing the cocoa with a small amount first helps prevent lumps.
Can you heat low-fat chocolate milk?
Yes. Warm it gently in a pan over a low heat, stirring, or microwave it in short bursts and stir between each one. Take it off the heat before it boils, as boiling can give milk a scalded taste.
How long does low-fat chocolate milk keep after opening?
Keep it covered in the fridge at 4 °C or colder and aim to use it within 3–4 days. Don’t leave it out for more than 2 hours, or 1 hour in very hot conditions.
Can you freeze low-fat chocolate milk?
You can, but freezing may make it separate or turn grainy when thawed. Freeze it in a sealed container with room for expansion, thaw it in the fridge, then shake or whisk well before drinking.
What can you make with low-fat chocolate milk?
Use it in a smoothie with banana, or swap it for plain milk in porridge, pancakes or French toast. In baking, its sweetness and cocoa flavour can change the result, so reduce any added sugar.
What can you use instead of low-fat chocolate milk?
For a quick substitute, stir cocoa powder and a little sugar or syrup into plain milk until smooth. For a dairy-free version, use a chocolate-flavoured soya or oat drink; the taste and thickness will differ.
