@electrineer Here we make it ourselves. With milk, chocolate powder, and sugar. It's funny how in different families they use different amounts, or if either one, and the arguments.
-
You can also try lactose-free milk, which tastes sweeter due to the lactose being broken down, and then reduce the amount of sugar.

@saucyatom If I had something else I wouldn't have used water.
Nah fr thank you, I didn't know. -
Milk is water based with emulgeants binding all the fat, so it can be diluted arbitrarily and it will always taste like milk except a little less, not like you added something else. I use this all the time to make cheap-ass perfect pancakes.
-
@lbfalvy I thought about it, but I still wanted to be sure not to spoil it at once.
-
@c3r38r170 Not instead of the water, but instead of the regular milk. Might taste different, but worth a try (if you want to reduce the carbs while still enjoying hot chocolate milk). Can combined with the 30% water trick for greater effect.

@lbfalvy There's a threshold however above which it will taste more like milky water rather than watery milk. For pancakes it is higher than for drinks.

I ran out of milk halfway a chocolate milk.
With no options left, I skeptically decided to add some water.
I had half a cup of milk, added 1/4 of water. Y'know, enough to look filled, not enough to ruin it in case it goes wrong.
Microwave it.
No, freaking, difference. Loved it.
I added some more water to see how much it changes, and it's just slightly less thick and 70% milk flavour. Sure it's a change but now I know the limit.
