Each year on September 27 folks enjoy a tall frosty glass to celebrate National Chocolate Milk Day. Pour yourself a glass and have a seat. It's time to kick back to learn about chocolate milk. #ChocolateMilkDay In the late 1680s, an Irish-born physician by the name of Sir Hans Sloane invented the chocolatey beverage that became known as chocolate milk. Sloane was offered the position of personal physician to an English Duke in Jamaica. Sloane jumped at the opportunity because Jamaica interested the naturalist in him. While in Jamaica, Sloane encountered a local beverage. The locals mixed cocoa and water together. However, when Sloane tasted it, he reported the flavor to be nauseating. Sloane would experiment experiment with the beverage and found a way to combine cocoa with milk. The creamy combination made it a more pleasant-tasting drink. He later returned to England with the chocolate recipe in hand. Initially, apothecaries introduced the concoction as a medicine. Generations later, chocolate milk lovers enjoy their treat in a variety of ways. It can be purchased premixed by the jug or individual serving. For a custom mix, powders and syrups allow us to make it as chocolatey as we like at home.
