If I had to put a number on it, I would say about 90% of the time the first words my kids say to me after school are, Hi Mom! What are we having for snack? I have gotten pretty good at keeping after school snacks stocked and ready.
One thing you can bet on finding in my refrigerator is chocolate milk. The new TruMoo Calcium Plus low-fat milk is a nutritious part of our after school snack routine. It has 50% more calcium than regular low-fat milk with the same great TruMoo chocolaty taste. My kids love it!
I thought it would be fun to treat my kids to an Italian Style Chocolate Soda using TruMoo Calcium Plus chocolate milk as the main ingredient. Most Italian soda recipes are made with a flavored syrup and sparkling water. A TruMoo Calcium Plus soda is much more nutritious than that! Plus, this Italian Style Chocolate Milk Soda is ready to drink in seconds.
Make an Italian Style Chocolate Soda with these two simple ingredients: TruMoo Calcium Plus Chocolate Milk and Seltzer water. (Seltzer water is carbonated water, similar to Club Soda.)
My kids love to drink fizzy chocolate milk sodas! I topped our sodas off with a little bit of whipped cream, but that’s totally optional. Chocolate Milk Sodas are a quick and easy treat for after school or after dinner.
Every serving of TruMoo Calcium Plus provides eight essential nutrients and extra boost of calcium for my children. That is definitely a happy bonus, in my book. Children’s growing bodies need calcium for strong bones and teeth. TruMoo Calcium Plus is an easy way for them to get the calcium they need.
How to Make an Italian Style Chocolate Soda with TruMoo Calcium Plus Chocolate Milk
- 1/2 cup TruMoo Calcium Plus Chocolate Milk
- 3/4 cup Seltzer Water
- optional Whipped Cream
- 1. Add TruMoo Calcium Plus chocolate milk to a glass. 2. Add cold Seltzer Water – it will create a layer of fizz at the top – the kids love it! Your Chocolate Milk Soda is ready to serve immediately. Optional: Top with whipped cream before serving.
Feel free to play around with the recipe’s measurements. You can add more or less TruMoo to taste. Just for fun: Go restaurant style! Chill empty glasses in the freezer for at least an hour before using them for the soda. A chilled glass helps keep the soda colder for longer.
