View Full Version : Hot Chocolate/Hot Cocoa - Milk or Water?
swedeace 11-13-2006, 11:51 PM So, you have placed your powdered hot chocolate/hot cocoa in your mug. What do you prefer your hot liquid to include: milk or water?
Personally, I love to make my hot chocolate/hot cocoa with warm milk because it's just creamier that way. I don't like the watery taste. I love the creaminess from the milk. Mmmmm.... :drool: Then, I usually add more milk to cool it off a bit. I don't put too much milk so my chocolate is still warmish.

I am the exact opposite. I don't like the creamy taste so I use hot water.

Number 9 Dream 11-14-2006, 01:36 PM I usually use hot water, but then again, I've never really tried making it with milk :)
Brieannas21 11-14-2006, 03:51 PM Milk, it taste sooooooo much better then plain water. Milk gives it a richer taste.
Sharop 11-14-2006, 04:43 PM I use water, because I don't like milk. I know you can't taste it in hot chocolate, so I suppose it's silly of me to steadfastly stick to water all the time, but I never have milk in anything, if I can help it. I don't even put milk in porridge.
I actually do wish I liked milk. Many people seem to love it, and when it's hot, it smells nice. I did have it hot once, with honey, and it was quite nice.
EmoJoe 11-14-2006, 05:05 PM its better with milk, but i use hot water, just because it works better with the mix we buy.

AllIWantIsYourClutch 11-14-2006, 06:37 PM I prefer milk but....I dont use it.
tdf4077 11-14-2006, 06:54 PM The best hot chocolate I've ever had was in Amsterdam...it was so incredibly creamy! I have tried time and again to replicate it here, but just can't (but maybe it wasn't cow's milk they used)
Anyways, I love it with milk. Sometimes, if I really feel like gorging myself, I'll plop it off with cool whip instead of marshmallows. Actually, I don't use marshmallows when I make it with milk...
Wow...that's a huge answer to a fast question :)

KristinHerreraFan 11-14-2006, 09:24 PM omfg milk!!!! Hot water is disgusting. I hate how my school uses hot water for their cappuccino machine in the cafe :mad:
DLevine2 11-14-2006, 10:05 PM I'd rather use hot water and marshmallows.
Janice 11-14-2006, 10:57 PM I'm drinking some now. I use Swiss Miss brand, and prepare it with water. Then I add a little milk or light cream...topped off with whipped cream.
