Milo is my fav energy drink in the morning all time! That rich texture and taste of chocolate is so good! But, no need extra sugar as it already sweeten.
In New Zealand everyone drinks this! There are whole isles of milo in some grocery stores. We never add sugar though! It's definetly sweet enough as is.
In my country, they sell different milo: just milo itself, milo with sugar and milo with both milk powder and sugar. For most of the time, we would get the one with milk powder and sugar so that simply adding hot water into the mixture can do.
OMG finally the "Thirsty For" videos are back in Tastemade~!!! I've watched all of them since I was a kid & found all of them very satisfying to watch. It wasn't until a few years passed, I couldn't find at least one single "Thirsty For" drink video. But now, I'm so happy all the videos are back. THANK YOUUU~!!!! XD
OMG this is classic Singapore drinks at the kopi tiam (sort of corner coffee shop). So good and oh so bad for the waist line. They have Horlicks (straight up malt) variants which are just as good.
Take it from the Australian, put in 3-infinity tabletspoons of milo into a large cup (the bigger the better) pour in milk till a cm from the top, stir that shit like youre making a tornado, once its like a milo froth on top, put another 3-infinity tablespoons on top, sort of push around the top of the milo so it has some milk in it, eat the milo off with a spoon, once gone, add more milo, repeat until desired, then scull that milo milk till its all gone. Or... put milo on top of ice cream
I live in Singapore and Milo is a literally a necessity to kids, we usually just pour hot water, a few tablespoons of milo and sweetened condensed milk, and we can get so creative with milo and sweetened condensed milk. The memories.
cant get enough of milo, always get told 1-3 teaspoons is enough but i never listen, always put at least 4 heap tablespoons in with just milk, never add sugar, perfect the way it is.
I really really love this close-up and silent format for cooking instructional videos. It's awesomely artistic and I wish this style was used on normal food videos.
Another awesome video as always! My favorite way to consume Milo is by the spoonful. Especially if it's a little damp (by our tropical climate) and becomes chewy. So good...
In my experience (and I have experimented A LOT with milo!) I find using condensed milk works really well, and brings out the uniquely rich, malty, chocolate-y flavour of milo that you don't really find in other instant powdered chocolate drinks. :) Fresh milk is fine, but using that as the main liquid ingredient I think gives it a more 'hot chocolate/cocoa' sort of 'boiled milk' taste. It's good if you just want a malty hot chocolate though! Condensed milk on the other hand has a bit more of a 'honey/caramel' flavour and this added caramelly sweetness doesn't just make the drink taste milky/creamy, but makes it really malty and that tiny bit sweeter (kind of like liquid milky Maltesers!). Just substitute the warmed milk with condensed milk and hot water - add extra sugar/milk (fresh or whatever) to taste and you have the perfect cup IMO :D The condensed milk method I think is the best for iced milo too!
Im from Malaysia and I grew up drinking milo for breakfast in the morning. Now that I'm studying in the states I brought 5 kilos of milo with me :) I usually drink it without milk and sugar, just with hot water, its called "milo kosong" or "milo-o"
They sell Milo at my local Publix and I enjoy drinking it to this day. I don't do it all that often, but a glass of cold milk with a couple teaspoons of the stuff goes down great-no extra sugar required! I always loved stirring the milk only slightly so the Milo wouldn't completely disintegrate. It tastes strangely good when wet and crunchy. Thanks for the video. I may well give this a try soon!
I grew up drinking Milo! This brings such good memories! Many places make this milo volcano- a smoothie with a mountain of milo powder on the top yummmmm
you never taste ovaltine ? we have ovaltine in Philippines when i was a kid ,,, its a chocolate drink also ,,, these two brands milo and ovaltine is like rivals , milo wins i think ,,, because i can't see ovaltine now , i can't find them on grocery stores ... but ovaltine comes in chocolate candy tablets too ,,,,
Junrie Caoile Nevermind, I know whats ovaltine now. I just saw it yesterday in the supermarket, I had it before when I was a kid, but don't know what its called.
Yey Milo Dinosaur! Its everywhere here in Malaysia especially in mamak stalls. But i think they make in using condensed milk instead of sugar and milk. Will absolutely try the Milo Godzilla!
I loved Thirsty For videos - the editing, music etc it's so good! Makes me a crave for one, feel like going to the nearest kopitiam and grab a glass of milo dinosaur!
i used to drink milo everyday back home in fiji :') it was tough trying to find non-austrialian milo here in canada, but i managed! (australian milo is much sweeter) but i found a fiji shop that sells it! so glad. i buy it by the huge tins :')
WOW. milo dinosaur! haven't had that in such a long time! (grew out of my sweet tooth) fellow Singaporean here. We can get that almost everywhere (or homemade if we want to) Heard from my Aunt that Milo is known to many older generation here as Ka Kiu (Hokkien, a Chinese dialect for Soccer) since it was first imported here decades ago with a man kicking a ball printed on the container.
Or....just try it heaped into cold milk and stirred with a spoon. It won't dissolve straight away so you get to eat the soggy/crunchy chocolate that rises to the top. Don't add sugar as it's got heaps in it already from the malt. Thanks for posting. Yum!
As an Aussie, these just look like standard ways of drinking milo haha. My personal fave would be the "magic milo", I just call them all milo, but topped with WAY more milo on top with no added sugar. Yum.
This is also a common drink in my country, Malaysia (: For a sweeter twist, substitute the sugar with condensed milk (equal amount, or why not, add some more) for that extra-creamy goodness! Nyummm!
Milo is a drink I've not only grew up on here in the Philippines, but it's been my morning drink to keep me hyped for the day! Better do this concoction soon!
i usually drink my milo with a glass of cold milk. it wouldn't dissolve into the milk but that's why it taste good! you'd have the crunchiness and it wouldn't be too sweet and just fresh and cold drink!
Look yummy! In Thai we have similar drink called Volcano Ovaltine. We use ovaltine instead of Milo, and top it with ovaltine, condensed milk and Coco Crunch.
strawberriechoc The unsweetened form in Asia also contains heaps of sugar. Go figure... Then again, we usually use condensed milk instead of milk + sugar in Malaysia which is where the extra sugar comes from.
How to make the best milo (from am Aussie): 2 heaped tablespoons of milo. Little bit of milk just to cover milo. Make into a paste Add ice cream. Top with more milk. Add more milo. Done. It's more a meal than drink Haha! When you added sugar I nearly yelled at my phone! Totally sweet enough without. But yet again I grew up on milo. Milo is also great just over ice cream. And in smoothies with banana and yogurt!
I've always made it with ice cold milk, adding a little more Milo than I should so I can eat the undissolved, crunchy bits on top. I don't add sugar to mine since I think it makes it too sweet, everyone has their own recipe.
Lol just yesterday my mom and i were debating which was better: milo or ovalteen. She grew up on Milo since her childhood and loves eating it straight out of the tin! Both Milo and Ovalteen have been sold here in Virginia as far back as I can remember (I'm 23.) But neither have been as popular as Nesquik for some reason...
If you're hungry for a snack, you can always use the Milo powder as a spread on a piece of bread and eat it straight up. Used to always have that as a child. ^.^
We used to have Milo in México, and I always loved it more than Nesquick or Chocomilk, the competitors, because it was less sweet!!! How I miss it!!! I didn't know it was from Australia! Thank you!
I love this. I never realized that most Americans never had milo before, (it's a chocolate malt similar to ovaltine but the grains are a bit grittier but taste better). I've grown up on it since I'm Jamaican, but you'd have to live in a multicultural area to get it In a store.
oh my gosh.. milo has been a huge part of my life ever since i was a kid.. in the Philippines its our 'hot chocolate'.. every home in the country has milo in their kitchen..
Milo is still around in the Mediterranean! My dad used to love it when he was a child, and to this day calls any warm milky drink (that isn't tea or coffee) a Milo,
+tiacahia Maybe some of us have congested sinus and can't taste salt or sugar as well, or maybe we've smoked so many roaches that we've burned away a proportion of our taste buds. At work I always get the apprentice etc to taste what I prep due to this.
Well, the true, authentic Milo Dinosaur that Singaporeans love is made with condensed milk and water instead of sugar and regular milk, so that's why it explains why this recipe uses sugar since regular milk was used. You can omit the sugar but it wouldn't be the same or true Milo Dinosaur.
In Singapore where Milo Dinosaur is common, we do not add ice cream. It's milo powder, hot water, condensed milk. No added sugar as well...and Ice is added and the powder floated on top. That's the singapore version...as well as Malaysian...(I grew up on both sides) I believe this version is an inspired version or perhaps, you might wanna reveal which country is serving your variant?
Reminds me of my childhood. I remember there were packs for just a single serving and I just ate the powder, no milk, just the Milo powder. It was awesome. Then you'd end up with powder all over your face. Awesome
For me milo and hot choc are totally different! I love milo with condensed milk. The annoying thing is I hate when i make Milo for myself, it doesnt taste the same when my mom make it or my amah. Many fond memories of Milo. In my country (brunei) there is a milo truck! Usualy it would come to school during sports day and everyone would line up to get a cup of cold Milo!
How about Spice Milo Chai - Try adding a pinch of ground cinnamon, nutmeg and allspice to the Milo before adding the hot milk! Adds a new dimension and makes it "adult"! I love it!
I believe I saw Milo at either World Market or Rodmann's Gourmet here in the DC area. I'll go around there this week and check it out not familiar with this mix. Curious to see how different it is from others like Ovaltine.
I was going to complain that this isn't how you make milo, then I read the name of the video and realised it's like a mocktail and isn't meant to be normal milo. What a novel concept, reading the name of a video.
omg milo!! i used to mix a bowl of milo with a little cold water and it turned into a chocolatey sauce that i would eat as an after school snack :D i'll probably get heart disease but it was tasty :)
In Colombia we put everything in a blender with cold milk and serve it cold and frothy. Come to think of it, I haven't had it since I was a kid!

Some of the milos in certain asian countries use mainly hot water, then we mix it with condensed sweetened milk
Exactly

By the way, add cold milk, not hot milk

Here in Singapore we use water instead of milk but we add condensed milk so we omit the sugar. Malaysians use water too.
cant get enough of milo, always get told 1-3 teaspoons is enough but i never listen, always put at least 4 heap tablespoons in with just milk, never add sugar, perfect the way it is.
Really, really innovative way of framing different variations of a recipe. I couldn't love this channel more.
I really really love this close-up and silent format for cooking instructional videos. It's awesomely artistic and I wish this style was used on normal food videos.
Oh I miss Milo. In Singapore during cross country meets, a milo truck owuld come, and after racing we would get free milo. Best days ever
What a cool recipe. I have never heard of it, but I am happy one of my fans sent me some Milo the other day. Can't wait to try this out.
this is really famous drink in Malaysia. we called this Air Milo Tabur. :)
You could also use Milo as a bread spread. But you know, it's a bit messy but super good.
Another awesome video as always! My favorite way to consume Milo is by the spoonful. Especially if it's a little damp (by our tropical climate) and becomes chewy. So good...
a few heaped tablespoons of milo and a little splash of milk is literally the most satisfying thing ever! in fact, i'm going to make some now :P
I LOVE this series! Thanks for second season.
Loved the graphics and story board! Brilliant!

In Thailand, children love it when Milo powder is added on top and forms a mountain-like shape. So we literally call it "Volcanic Milo".
Miss this so much! When I was young, I loved mixing cold milk with milo. The texture is very interesting!
They sell Milo at my local Publix and I enjoy drinking it to this day. I don't do it all that often, but a glass of cold milk with a couple teaspoons of the stuff goes down great-no extra sugar required!
I always loved stirring the milk only slightly so the Milo wouldn't completely disintegrate. It tastes strangely good when wet and crunchy.

I do that too. Love it!
I grew up drinking Milo! This brings such good memories! Many places make this milo volcano- a smoothie with a mountain of milo powder on the top yummmmm
Americans be like : The heck is Milo?
Asians be like : The heck is Ovaltine?
No seriously though, what's Ovaltine? ._.
you never taste ovaltine ? we have ovaltine in Philippines when i was a kid ,,, its a chocolate drink also ,,, these two brands milo and ovaltine is like rivals , milo wins i think ,,, because i can't see ovaltine now , i can't find them on grocery stores ... but ovaltine comes in chocolate candy tablets too ,,,,
Junrie Caoile Nevermind, I know whats ovaltine now. I just saw it yesterday in the supermarket, I had it before when I was a kid, but don't know what its called.
Slendatroll :) but what do you refer ?? milo or ovaltine ?? just curious ,, hehehe
Junrie Caoile Ovaltine
Forever Lxshton Milo has a milo nuggets :v it taste really good
Yey Milo Dinosaur! Its everywhere here in Malaysia especially in mamak stalls. But i think they make in using condensed milk instead of sugar and milk. Will absolutely try the Milo Godzilla!
In Singapore, the base(what is used overall) is usually just plain hot water, then we add in condensed milk and also we don't add extra sugar.
I loved this SO much. Thank you for returning, my dark days are now over.
I'd love to see you make kombucha!
I loved Thirsty For videos - the editing, music etc it's so good! Makes me a crave for one, feel like going to the nearest kopitiam and grab a glass of milo dinosaur!
i used to drink milo everyday back home in fiji :')
it was tough trying to find non-austrialian milo here in canada, but i managed!
(australian milo is much sweeter) but i found a fiji shop that sells it! so glad. i buy it by the huge tins :')

Milo is my B.A.E 😍 Like literally ever since I can remember like MILO FOR LIFE!!!
'Milo tabur'! Greetings from Malaysia :D
I'm from Malaysia and the kids here practically grew up with milo ❤
Yes, it's like a such a staple at mamaks.
exactly haha :)
This is the most amazing video I've ever seen :D
I use to make a paste of milo and condense milk, so good. Mmmm, now I want some and I'm 33. Thanks a lot.
I did that too! And spread it on bread. :D
I know, it was so good... :D
Imo you dont need any extra sugar... for the Milo to be good... I like it as it is
Look yummy! In Thai we have similar drink called Volcano Ovaltine. We use ovaltine instead of Milo, and top it with ovaltine, condensed milk and Coco Crunch.
wow i never add extra sugar, milo's sweet enough! or i just dump shit ttonnes more milo lol
From my experience, Milo from Australia is different from the stuff we can get imported into the US, and possibly different than the Asian Milo.
Milo over here in Asia are sold in both sweetened and unsweetened (dry powder) forms (:
strawberriechoc The unsweetened form in Asia also contains heaps of sugar. Go figure... Then again, we usually use condensed milk instead of milk + sugar in Malaysia which is where the extra sugar comes from.
Looks so tempting! I should try this for my daughter. I like the glass sauce pan that you use to heat milk. Where can I find something like that.
How to make the best milo (from am Aussie):
2 heaped tablespoons of milo.
Little bit of milk just to cover milo.
Make into a paste
Add ice cream.
Top with more milk.
Add more milo.
Done. It's more a meal than drink Haha!
When you added sugar I nearly yelled at my phone! Totally sweet enough without. But yet again I grew up on milo.
Milo is also great just over ice cream. And in smoothies with banana and yogurt!
Try using condensed milk, milo powder and water! It's really good! Also, condensed milk + milo powder on sandwich bread makes a fantastic breakfast
Milo was my childhood, so seeing this brought back so many memories :)
I've always made it with ice cold milk, adding a little more Milo than I should so I can eat the undissolved, crunchy bits on top. I don't add sugar to mine since I think it makes it too sweet, everyone has their own recipe.

Both Milo and Ovalteen have been sold here in Virginia as far back as I can remember (I'm 23.) But neither have been as popular as Nesquik for some reason...
I requested for this! Thank you! :-) my favourite drink!
i love Milo!! used to drink it all the time when i was little. It's rare to find it in American stores.
If you're hungry for a snack, you can always use the Milo powder as a spread on a piece of bread and eat it straight up. Used to always have that as a child. ^.^
Milo is a drink widely drank in South East Asia. As far as i could rmb we had 'Dinosaur' in Singapore's Indian Prata Shop since the 1990s...
Never thought Milo dinosaur would make it here!! Was totally addicted to Milo as a kid, still am...
I love Milo since the first sip I've been hooked
We used to have Milo in México, and I always loved it more than Nesquick or Chocomilk, the competitors, because it was less sweet!!! How I miss it!!! I didn't know it was from Australia! Thank you!
Awesome! We ❤ Milo
We don't have Milo here in Belgium nor France, but this gives me ideas to use with chocolate milk ;)
I love this. I never realized that most Americans never had milo before, (it's a chocolate malt similar to ovaltine but the grains are a bit grittier but taste better). I've grown up on it since I'm Jamaican, but you'd have to live in a multicultural area to get it In a store.

Breathtaking and delicious, as always!
Don't add sugar, there's tons already. Sheesh.
+tiacahia yeahhh too sweeet
LOL

well, in the ph.. we add sugar so that our milo will be tasty
I love milo! I used to drink it all the time when I went to visit my family in Peru :)
Milo plus Icecream equals AWESOME!!!!!!!
In Singapore where Milo Dinosaur is common, we do not add ice cream.
It's milo powder, hot water, condensed milk. No added sugar as well...and Ice is added and the powder floated on top.
That's the singapore version...as well as Malaysian...(I grew up on both sides)
I believe this version is an inspired version or perhaps, you might wanna reveal which country is serving your variant?
I thought there was gonna be no more thirsty for? I'll be soo happy if you guys changed your minds! I love the thirsty for series!
they just finished the first season, this is the second one :)
What milk you using??
I grow up on this in Jamaica. Loved it
Ohhhh milo is literally one of the best things in the world.
Reminds me of my childhood. I remember there were packs for just a single serving and I just ate the powder, no milk, just the Milo powder. It was awesome. Then you'd end up with powder all over your face. Awesome
I love the way this video was shot!
I want the Magic Milo. Plus, I love my aerolatte frother, it makes warm drinks delicious!
I live in Singapore and they do sell this and they are addictively delicious!!!!
I'm american and I love milo, probably because my aunt lives in australia.
I'm British but some of my neighbours as a kid were Malaysian and they LOVED this stuff! It was really good, haven't had I for so long though :(
I can't believe someone would even make this video!!!! You know I will not be able to think of anything else but Milo until I try one! ....or all 3!
This amazing drink originated from Singapore. yums. My fav.
For me milo and hot choc are totally different! I love milo with condensed milk. The annoying thing is I hate when i make Milo for myself, it doesnt taste the same when my mom make it or my amah.
Many fond memories of Milo. In my country (brunei) there is a milo truck! Usualy it would come to school during sports day and everyone would line up to get a cup of cold Milo!
This was my childhood! I love Milo!
I'm liking the quality. Freaking 4K!!! What camera are you using? The C500?
In Singapore we add hot water to Milo powder before stirring in condensed milk!
super dupa love "thirsty for...", am a huge fan of your channel!!
This drink brings me back to my childhood memories in singapore!!
Took me right back to my childhood. Thank you :)
Oh my god I looooove milo I eat it with a spoon it taste soo good! Thanck a lot for the recipe I didnt know that milo tasted great with ice cream
How about Spice Milo Chai - Try adding a pinch of ground cinnamon, nutmeg and allspice to the Milo before adding the hot milk! Adds a new dimension and makes it "adult"! I love it!
I believe I saw Milo at either World Market or Rodmann's Gourmet here in the DC area. I'll go around there this week and check it out not familiar with this mix. Curious to see how different it is from others like Ovaltine.
NO! home come this has only 86k views?? this deserves more views!
We usually use water when making milo. I use cold water and add A LOT of Milo and eat the clumps of Milo that don't dissolve.
MILO AND COFFEE. SO GOOD.
I was going to complain that this isn't how you make milo, then I read the name of the video and realised it's like a mocktail and isn't meant to be normal milo. What a novel concept, reading the name of a video.
We absolutely love milo here in Singapore. Woohoooooo!
omg milo!! i used to mix a bowl of milo with a little cold water and it turned into a chocolatey sauce that i would eat as an after school snack :D i'll probably get heart disease but it was tasty :)
