Thatcher Farm Chocolate Milk

A nigh coffee-ish maturity to the cocoa flavor that is there only if you're looking for it, but otherwise it’s a substantially built, competently delicious whole chocolate milk worthy of its glass enclosure and your refrigerator space.

Rogers Farmstead Organic Chocolate Milk

Three sips into it and I’m already pissed I didn’t buy more. The cream is delectably buttery and grassy, and it melds with the cocoa in a way that provides maximum flavor with minimum baggage. Though the bottle lasts only about 2-3 minutes, the memory may last until your final days.

Sweet Rowen Farmstead Sea-Salted Chocolate Milk

Confidently under-sweet, in a way that will shock most first-time consumers, especially if expecting your traditional syrup-laced over-the-counter supermarket chocolate milk. Once your palate adjusts, you can appreciate the masterful duet of cocoa and cream— and you will question the paradigm of sugar’s apparent relationship with indulgence.

Monument Farms Dairy Chocolate Milk

Fantastically well-balanced cream, cocoa, sweetness, and salt— a genuine pleasure to imbibe. Vibrant cocoa flavor upfront, with a malty kiss on the back end— not quite as risqué as it sounds— but it’s a solidly indulgent treat where every sip is as delicious as the last.

Stewart's Shops Chocolate Dairy Shake

Unsettlingly girthy and sweet beyond what the law should allow. I peeled off the label and was expecting to see ‘Diabetes in a Jug’ underneath. It’s far too thick and sugary to attempt to discern other flavors and properties, frankly, if you’re past the age of 11, I can’t in good faith recommend.
