2% Milk (Plain)

Method

2% Milk (Plain)

  1. 1

    Chill and Serve

    If milk is refrigerated and already cold, pour 1 cup (240 ml) of 2% milk into a clean glass. Add ice cubes if you prefer an extra-cold drink. Serve immediately.

  2. 2

    Quick Chill (if milk is warm)

    If milk is warm, place the filled glass in the refrigerator for 10–15 minutes or add 4 ice cubes and stir for 30 seconds until chilled. Do not leave milk at room temperature for more than 2 hours.

Chocolate Milk

  1. 3

    Combine Syrup and Milk

    Pour 1 cup (240 ml) of 2% milk into a clean glass. Add 2 tablespoons of chocolate syrup into the milk.

  2. 4

    Mix

    Stir vigorously with a spoon for about 20–30 seconds until the syrup is fully incorporated and the liquid is uniform in color. For a smoother result, use a small handheld frother for 10–15 seconds.

  3. 5

    Optional Flavor Boost

    If desired, add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and stir for another 5 seconds to enhance flavor.

  4. 6

    Serve

    Add 4 ice cubes if you prefer your chocolate milk cold. Serve immediately. If not consuming right away, refrigerate and consume within 24–48 hours.
