What it is
This is a refrigerated beverage made with dairy milk that has had most of its fat removed and then flavored with chocolate. It is a ready-to-drink product, meaning it is prepared for immediate consumption. The 1% designation refers to the milk's fat content, which is lower than whole or 2% milk. It offers a sweet and familiar chocolate taste, making it a popular choice for many.
How people cook with it
Chocolate milk is enjoyed as a standalone drink or as a component in various culinary creations.
- As a refreshing beverage
- In smoothies

Simply open the container and pour. It is best served chilled. For a colder drink, you can pour it over ice.

When making milkshakes, it provides a convenient way to achieve a chocolatey base without needing to add cocoa powder and sweetener separately.
