Your Chocolate Priestess has reviewed chocolate milk products before. Some were excellent and highly recommended while other were not worth your money and time. Today I'm looking at a chocolate milk that could satisfy those of you who are dairy allergies or intolerances.
Silk is a brand of soy milk that has several serving sizes and flavors. I bought this "Light" Chocolate version when it was on sale and I had significant coupon from our local Kroger's. Much like organic milk, soy and other diary milk products that try to be an alternative for diary tends to cost a good deal more so finding it on sale is usually a wise move. I got the "Light" because the chocolate I've enjoyed most is a skim milk version so I felt this was a more fair comparison.
8oz is one serving and it has 90 calories with 80mg sodium, 300mg potassium, 2g fiber, 14g sugars, 3g protein. as well as 10 vitamins and minerals. A very healthy drink I think. It looks very much like chocolate milk and has a strong, pleasant chocolate scent. It does taste sweeter than the skim chocolate milk we've had in the past and that might be either the soy or the cane juice in it. I gave a glass to a friend of mine who has drank other types of soy milks and he said this is one of his favorite. So if you are looking for a dairy alternative but want your chocolate, give this a try and I think you'll be happy.
Sisters and Brothers, may you, too, take the time to slowly appreciate what the Divine and human ingenuity have offered you in chocolate.
