June 2025. A chocolate milk tour of Europe

My older brother has recently been on a holiday of Europe. He texted me regular updates on the chocolate milk situation throughout his travels. Europe seems to have a good selection of chocolate milks. Expand this post to see what kinds of texts I got.

June 4 2025. Day one

Just 3 hours after touching down in London I received my first update. It's almost as if the first thing he did in this new country was to locate a chocolate milk.

Cacaolat 'Cocoa Milk'

With this came a little description: "Cocoa milk is correct, very cocoa flavour. More cocoa milk than chocolate milk"

I think it looks good.

June 5 2025. Day two

It's a new day in London, and there's a new text message in my notifications.

Cadbury 'Creamy Chocolate Milkshake'

"You would like this one. Basically melted Cadbury in a thick shake"

Bought as part of a $8 Tesco meal deal (or £8 I guess technically) that came with a sandwich and a packet of chips. Shoutout Tesco that's pretty sick.

And yeah, why can't I buy this in Australia. Why hasn't Cadbury Australia figured out the joys of liquid chocolate. Why must I go without this. Why.

June 8 2025. Another one

So I sent the chocolate coconut water to my brother, and a few hours later he sent me back this:

müller frijj 'Fudge Brownie Flavour Milkshake'

Okay so müller was originally a German brand but they have a UK division that sells different stuff to the German one. For example, flavoured milks.

This particular flavour, fudge brownie, sounds pretty interesting to me. "Tastes exactly like advertised" says the brother.

müller apparently does limited edition flavours such as raspberry doughnut and Jaffa cake, although this flavour is one of their permanent ones. I wonder if someone in the UK has reviews of all the historical limited editions. That'd be cool.

June 9 2025. Englands best.

Yazoo 'Chocolate Milk Drink'

I guess he got bored of England.

Powerade 'Mountain Blast'

This isn't a chocolate milk. This is a powerade in a can. Enough said.

June 24 2025. One last chocolate milk.

This one is still in Germany.

Müllermilch Shake 'Milk Chocolate Geschmack'

Geschmack is such a funny word I love the German language. It means "taste".

write up coming soon

June 22 2025. New website feature - Price Check

Hi. I've been working on getting live price data from the big 2 supermarkets, and as of now I've got Woolworths working.

The goal is basically to give myself an easy way to check which supermarket I should go to for my "essentials".

Coles data will come once I figure out how to get it.

June 8 2025. Chocolate flavoured... coconut water?

I'm not really sure if this can be considered a chocolate milk, since, well, it's not milk.

I bought it anyway.

Did I like it? Not particularly. I don't like coconut water when it's coconut water flavoured, and in my opinion the words "chocolate" and "water" should never be put in the same sentence under any circumstances. It was, however, better than expected.

I would still probably put it as a mid tier entry, but who knows - maybe someone that likes coconut water will think this is amazing. This is not really my area of expertise.

So with that being said, you will not be finding chocolate coconut water in the ranking website. And you will not be finding this stuff in my fridge. I will be sticking to drinks made with milk.

September 3 2025. Blog section

Okay so this is from the future, I thought I'd put this first to explain the purpose of this page.

Mainly this will act as a changelog, for any new additions to the rankings.

Also, occasionally I might have something that I think is worth saying. Something I think is interesting. That will go here too.

This project was started in March of 2025, so the first 3 or so months are unlogged and unblogged. Nothing interesting happened for the first 3 months anyway.

That's all I've got to say for this one. Thanks for reading. Hope you have a nice day. Or evening. Or night.
