Hot Chocolate/Hot Cocoa - Milk or Water? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

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....

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.

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.

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

Courtnee · 11-14-2006, 08:27 PM

I'd rather use hot water and marshmallows.
