Riga is a great city despite an underdeveloped chocolate milk scene. We also stop by one of my favorite restaurants in Europe, Folkklubs Ala Pagrabs.

This is sure to be lost in the boundless annals of Lithuanian chocolate milk literature, but I'm confident that I've experienced what Vilnius has to offer from a chocolate milk standpoint; here is my tale.

Got around to a great deal of the city, but only came home with 3 chocolate milks that I hadn't seen previously. Would the relatively high standard of Polish chocolate milk continue?

It happens to be National Chocolate Milk Day, and I find myself going store-to-store in Warsaw, Poland, in search of new (to me) chocolate milk. For me, it's just like any other day-- only the locations change.

Another flight of 5 chocolate milks picked up in Krakow, Poland. We've got all the bases covered here-- thick, caffeinated, light, dark, sporty, chalky, salty, gimmicky, etc.

Initial scans of Polish shelves yielded less chocolate milk variety than I had hoped, but would quality ameliorate the apparent lack of quantity?

...that I haven't tried. Final day in Budapest is a double-session of chocolate milk tasting, the second of which follows actual solid food intake (unsalted peanuts). Hungary served me well-- next up: Poland.

A trip to French hypermarket Auchan outside of Budapest yielded a bunch of new (to me) chocolate milk. Need to drink it ASAP as there's precious little vacancy in the mini fridge.

The first of a few videos reviewing Hungarian chocolate milk. Also, a 'pro' tip on opening any bagged liquid.
