How to Make Chocolate Milk for Your Diet

Want all organic?   Simply choose organic ingredients!  Need dairy free?  Try almond milk.  Want gluten free?  Try raw sugar, natural dark cocoa powder (not cocoa mixes), and pure vanilla extract.  If you want sugar free try replacing the sugar with liquid Stevia. Here is a great post from Deliciously Organic that can help you determine what works best for you!

So basically this awesomely delicious treat is perfect for everyone!

What else can you add to Homemade Chocolate Milk?

Some folks like to add a little cinnamon (I tried this and didn’t like it) or nutmeg. Others have added about a tablespoon of butter to the blender while mixing.

Want it thicker? Try adding a teaspoon for cornstarch before blending.

Make it a Chocolate Milkshake by adding vanilla ice cream!
