Plain 2% (Partly Skimmed) Milk - Single Serving
Partly Skimmed Chocolate Milk - Single Serving
Method
Plain 2% (Partly Skimmed) Milk - Single Serving
Chill the milk in the refrigerator until it reaches desired coldness (recommended 1–4°C). If milk is already cold, proceed to step 2.
If desired, add 2 ice cubes to the glass to further chill. Stir briefly and serve immediately.
Storage: Keep unused milk refrigerated at or below 4°C in its original container with the cap closed. Use within the date on the package (and within 3–7 days after opening based on storage guidance).
Partly Skimmed Chocolate Milk - Single Serving
Chill 1 cup of 2% milk in the refrigerator or use already cold milk. Cold milk gives the best refreshing result.
Whisk or stir vigorously for 20–30 seconds until the chocolate syrup is fully incorporated and the beverage is uniform in color and texture. Alternatively, cover the container and shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds.
Taste and adjust sweetness or chocolate intensity: add more syrup (½ tbs increments) or ½ tsp sugar as needed, then stir or shake again.
Pour the chocolate milk into a serving glass over 2 ice cubes if desired. Serve immediately.
Storage: Prepare chocolate milk fresh for best flavor. If you must store, keep refrigerated in a sealed container and consume within 24 hours. Stir or shake before serving.
