# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It's ready in five minutes flat, no fancy equipment or barista skills required.
  • That chocolatey flavor is bold enough to actually taste indulgent, even though it's simple.
  • Works perfectly whether you're using dairy milk, oat, almond, or soy—no compromises on taste.
02 -
  • Dissolving the Milo in hot water first is non-negotiable; if you try to mix it with cold milk straight away, you'll end up with clumps and texture problems.
  • The temperature contrast is part of what makes this work—warm chocolate base meeting cold ice and milk creates something more interesting than just cold Milo would be.
03 -
  • Make a batch of the Milo mixture the night before and store it in the fridge—you can pour it over ice the next day whenever you want a drink, no waiting for hot water to cool.
  • Use a tall glass instead of a regular mug; there's something about the presentation that makes the drink feel more special, and it genuinely tastes better when it feels like something you actually decided to make rather than something you just grabbed.
