Milk drinks

[Luv Angel Musik Babee]

What can I buy to flavour milk so I drink it more? I'm not into quick thats a bit gross but I am going to get some milo. I just made a hot chocolate and OMD :d: I found some malt powder in the cupboard too but can I just add that to milk? What does it do? And taste like? Is there anything else I can put in milk?

[purple_kitten]

ice cream toppings like strawberry, chocolate or caramel etc are good for flavouring milk.

[Beverley]

Glad you liked the hot chocolate. Told you it was nice. Malt is good for putting weight on. (truly)

[Telori]

Malt...I eat it out of the tin!...well I use to...too bloody dear now I dont even buy it...The kids use ice cream topping...saves me buying topping AND milk flavouring...

[Luv Angel Musik Babee]

It makes you put on weight? Wow I got it cause Ty used to get all um un pooey on formula and malt helped him so I'd add a little to his bottles til he was better. Now well he's ok now so I have a heap left. What does it taste like?

[5littleducks]

oh malt is sooooooooooooooo yummy .. bung it in some warm milk before bed .. *drooling*

bilo have it's brand of quick style stuff, it's actually really yummy for the price and my kids love it on icecream.

you can put anything you want in milk .. even rum (not that you would as you're preggers ..)

[Luv Angel Musik Babee]

LMAO LMAO I've tried rum and milk, not so nice alone I like milk and rum and coke but not rum and milk :eww:

[purple_kitten]

did you mean you like milk with rum and coke all at once? sorry but :eww: that doesn't sound right. It may be cuz I cannot drink milk.

[Luv Angel Musik Babee]

no no coke ick that'd be worse :eww: I have tried rum and milk though, was a bit funky I prefer rum and coke, when I'm not pregnant of course :Hehe:

[purple_kitten]

oh ok sorry I must have misread your post lol. Yeah I was a rum drinker too with either coke or with lemonade and raspberry cordial.

[Luv Angel Musik Babee]

LOL No I think I confused myself with that post :Hehe: With cordial? Hmmm I've never tried it but we are :ots:

[Trac474]

Vanilla will go well with malt give it a try its one of my favs dont go much on milo and other things.

[purple_kitten]

another thing you could try putting in the milk could be honey.

[Luv Angel Musik Babee]

Ok cool thanks girls, will try some out later on :D :D I;m getting my caffenine(sp?) fix ATM coke :d:

[~CJJHRA~]

now that they have changed the quik, it tastes yuk!

Kaluha and baileys goes well with milk! LOL

[Telori]

Yep vanilla essense with a tea spoon of sugar...and if you have a blender a scoop of ice cream...

[Luv Angel Musik Babee]

I dont have a blender or ice cream :(

[5littleducks]

oh yum telori, that sounds nice!

i have never tried rum and milk, but i served it up once night when i was working in the bar .. eew!

[Patricia]

Angie what about eating more yoghurt and cheese (not soft cheese when preg like brie and stuff because of listeria)...

I dont do dairy so i am afraid i am no good with milk drink suggestions :P

[~CJJHRA~]

How about cold coffee? or coffee with warm-hot milk?

tim tams as straws are yum with plain milk LOL

[5littleducks]

i've never been able to get that to work for me .. the tim tam thing that is

[Luv Angel Musik Babee]

I need more coffee :D It's top of my shopping list LOL


Patricia, I get sick of yoghurt too easy so I dont buy it much and the only cheese I eat is normal cheese on sangas and stuff

[Beverley]

Malt is a weight putter onner but it's yummy. Yet another thing I can't eat. We use to have it on ice cream as kids.
It's nice in a milkshake too.

[Patricia]

Ok have been thinking about this and knew I had something important to add but couldnt remember..now I have :P

When I was pregnant my g/mother used to say ..pity you dont like milk as I would make you lots of custard and lovely junket. Apparently junket is really delicious if you like dairy..and you buy these little things called junket tablets in the dessert aisle in the supermarket (near long life custards and things)..think you just whip them up with whole fat milk..and enjoy!

Ok another one is flummery..will find you a recipe..all of these are very good for the boys too and I would be very surprised if they didnt love them and wolf them down like nobodies business :P

[GINAinLA]

Angie, I am not a Dr or anything but I dont think you are suppose to be drinking caffine or having chocolate while you are prego. I know we arent here..
Anyhow.

I was going to say vanilla would be good..

Too bad you dont have a blender..

I am not a milk drinker at all, I have to put malted ovaltine in it. or make shakes.

We have Quick strawberry, do you like strawberry milk?

[yomamma]

what about fruit? put it in the blender with milk and have smoothie

[Luv Angel Musik Babee]

:eww: Hate strawberry milk, I'm a choc or coffee girl and yeah I know not suposed to have too much caffene(sp?) but meh I drank heaps and heaps of coke while pregnant with Ty and it was ok, plus I eat a bit healthier now too

[Telori]

God their is so much you aren't allowed to eat and stuff when you are pregnant...I think you need to let your body and your baby let you know what is alright...apart from smokes and alcohol that is...

[Supa]

You can pick up blender's pretty cheaply now so when you can grab one & add things like banana & honey to milk, or fresh strawberries with a bit of cream or icecream.......:d:

[Luv Angel Musik Babee]

I think I might have to get some cheap vanilla ice cream this week too. Thanks for all the suggestions guys it's great :D :D

[5littleducks]

i agree telori! we're expected to wrap ourselves in cotton wool, yet not complain in the process .. i have always found junkett daunting, so i got the poweder ones, you just add 500-700mls of cold milk, whisk/blend until thickened and then bung in the fridge .. within 20mins you have a yummy desert! they're usually with the jellies. my kids love them!

if you find milk a struggle, get one of the ones with added folate and calcium and try to have 600ml a day .. or you could simply take a calcium supliment. ask your dr.

[yomamma]

how are you going with the milk drinking Luv?

[Luv Angel Musik Babee]

Well I ran out of milk last night :Hehe: Sooooo glad it's shopping today and I'm going to get some of the stuff that everyone suggested :D

[yomamma]

so what delish delight did you make for yourself?

[Telori]

I've packed the blender....:D

[yomamma]

oh you didn't did you? when we crossed aussie i packed the breville in the boot

[Luv Angel Musik Babee]

Woohoo awesome thanks Teena :D :D :D I had that in mind when I went shopping so I've got ice cream, choc topping, coffee and the malt and cocoa in the cupboard oh and this afternoon when we went to the local shop I brought a 600ml chco shake mmmmmm :d: I love those haven't had one in ages and it's in the fridge for later when Gav is in bed so he doesn't bug me for some :D :D

[5littleducks]

hehe .. good girl!

[GINAinLA]

Sounds good.. Can I have some!

it's in the fridge for later when Gav is in bed so he doesn't bug me for some :D :D

LMAO I have to eat my sweets in the Kitchen when no one is looking
