Delightfully creamy and mature with a slight sour note to the cocoa flavor. No thickeners here— only 3 ingredients, which really nails the thin-yet-creamy feel that is one of the most important features (to me) of a great chocolate milk.

Cocio Okologisk Chocolademaelk
Excellently thin, smooth, creamy, and darkish chocolaty. There’s a hint of chalk on the back end, but it still finishes predictably and competently. The best of the Cocio portfolio I’ve had yet (6 of them).
Harris Dairy Farm Chocolate Milk
Chocolaty and (perhaps a bit too) sweet, which is good enough to put it above average. The thickness is more prominent than the creaminess (I prefer the reciprocal) but overall it feels indulgent, dessert-y, and is a fine way to spend a couple minutes or a few hundred calories.
Hood Calcium Fortified Chocolate Milk
Fantastically creamy and delicious— could only be improved by having a stronger cocoa quotient. Very enjoyable to drink and feels both indulgent and sophisticated.
Borden Dutch Chocolate Milk
A darkish, sourish, mature-ish flavor that rides along a smooth wave of creamy. Feels dessert-like, indulgent, and should be handled with reverence.
Reed's Gourmet Chocolate Milk
Fantastic chocolate flavor and salty/sweet levels. The texture is quite thick and has lots of particulates that will adhere to the inside of the glass (it has potato flakes in it). From a taste standpoint, it’s outstanding, I wish the texture were a bit thinner/smoother. Minor gripe.
Sunshine Dairy Foods Moonstruck Drinking Chocolate
Tons of taste— the chocolate flexes its muscles and is judiciously disseminated by the cream, leaving a warmth in your mouth, as though it’s hugging you and your body reciprocates. Excellent.
Moriyama Ice Cocoa
Chalky, but super chocolaty and rich. The cocoa taste feels authentic and the second sip you take will be smaller than the first because the flavor is dense and you will want to mete out your sips to make 180mL last as long as possible.
Binggrae Drinking Cacao 6
Sharp, sour, dark cocoa flavor that is not bathed in sugar— a very tasty experience that feels naughty.
Guylian Real Chocolate Milk Café Dark
Quite different from its Original counterpart, this version is wonderfully flavorful, authentic-feeling, and a tad malty.
You Chun Black Chocolate
Wow, dark chocolate flavor, dialed-back sweetness, great creamy quality— all delivered through a velvety thin texture. The taste lingers nicely on the tongue; you will wish it stayed for longer. Took me 7 weeks in China to find one, but the remainder of my time here will be spent with a carton of this in close proximity.
Nongpho Chocolate Flavoured Milk
Well balanced package of flavors, very smooth and creamy with adequate salt to tie it all together. I kept coming back to this brand my entire time in Thailand; I was always happy to see it on the shelf, and if the store had it, I bought it.
Harris Teeter Traders Truly Chocolate Milk
Tons of flavor brought through by a heavy dose of cream. May be too salty for some, but it works for me in conjunction with the malty cocoa flavor. There is a guilt factor, but it’s worth it in this case.
Landliebe Frische Kakao Milch
Silky smooth for a higher fat content drink, and lots of creamy flavor. The sweetness steps aside to let the cocoa come through, it's a nicely balanced drink in that regard. Meant to be savored.
Caotina Original
Above average in all respects, the taste is plenty chocolaty and implores you to take another sip. I found myself savoring each mouthful.
Hacendado Batido De Chocolate
Rich and creamy taste—almost buttery—works well with the (slightly) thinner than average texture. The cocoa taste expands in the mouth post-swallow. Remarkable from start to finish.
Agros Leite Com Chocolate
Excellent tasting with a thin texture. Plenty of cocoa and salt to go along with it, and lower sweetness which keeps the cocoa the star of the show and predominant flavor. Some roughness left to the tongue after swallowing but doesn’t detract from the overall great experience.
