Nestle Milo

Milo is not widely available in the UK, although is available freely elsewhere in Europe as I became addicted to it Greece originally. It originates in Australia and I hadn't had it for years so was surprised to see it sitting there on the shelf in my local Sainsburys, priced at a very reasonable £1.85 for 400g. Milo is an energy mix drink, targeted at children but loved by adults. It's packaged in a green, round tin with a pop off top (a bit like a paint tin), in the form of a powder, which you mix with milk. The great thing about Milo is that you can have it hot or cold, and it is full of B-vitamins for energy giving properties. Milo is delicious ...  Read the complete review

I don't drink my coffee real hot so I'm used to set it aside for a while while I let it cool a bit before sipping from the cup. One time, when I left my cup of coffee on the table as I did some house chores, my 2-year-old boy drank my coffee. He happened to love the taste so each time I drank a cup of coffee, he would be begging for a sip. He didn't like to drink his milk anymore so I ended up adding a pinch of coffee on his cup of milk to make it look darker. I know it was unhealthy but that would keep him from crying. When I went to the nearby grocery store, I picked up a can of Nestle Milo to satisfy my toddler's love for a dark drink that would be healthy ...  Read the complete review

Nestle Milo Milo, if you haven't heard the name before, is THE number one chocolate drink in Australia and New Zealand. Kids over there are brought up on it. Over there, you don't ask for a drink of hot chocolate, you ask for a Milo. I grew up in Australia. I remember taking little packets of Milo to school to put in the bottles of plain milk we used to be given each morning. Milo was a part of life. I've been in the UK for over 20 years now and quite recently started noticing tins of Milo appearing on various supermarket shelves. It's not usually in a prominent position, but to those who know it, it stands out like a ...  Read the complete review

My daughter came home from uni recently and told me that two of her friends loved the drink called Nestle Milo, and I immediately remembered that it was something I had seen in Tesco when I was looking for some coconut milk to add to a curry. Lurking near to this was a bright green tin, so bright green it reminded me of the buses that used to be in Liverpool when I was a child and we used to visits some aunties who lived there. The front of the tin is adorned with healthy looking athletes, highly suggestive that this product is energy giving. If you imagine a cross between ovaltine and hot chocolate this is what this drink is, and it makes the perfect pick you ...  Read the complete review

Nestle Milo is an energy drink that is not widely available in the supermarket. I saw them once in Sainsbury and it wasn't on the shelf the following week. I like the Nestle Milo, it is a good food drink for a snack break or a quick breakfast drink when you are running late in the morning. The chocolatey flavour and malt gives a wholesome taste. Milo can be drank hot or cold. You can make a cup of hot milo with steamed milk or hot water. I usually use hot water with a spoonful of evaporated milk. To drink Milo cold, just add ice cubes and you will taste a drink that taste like cold chocolate milk shake. Milo originates from Australia and is now ...  Read the complete review
