It’s not often you have a coupon that allows you to get the whole item for free. I think that’s really fun.
One winner will receive two manufacturer coupons for Horizon Organic® Low-fat Chocolate Milk Plus DHA Omega-3. Each coupon can be used for a free half gallon (64 oz, up to $4.99).
I have to make a confession here. I don’t like milk. Not even in cereal. (I use an almond drink instead.) I always dreaded my school lunch days when I had to choose between OJ, milk or chocolate milk. I typically went with chocolate milk and sipped it.
However, I do buy Horizon organic milk for cooking purposes. So, when I had the opportunity to try out their new organic chocolate milk with DHA Omega-3 , I decided to give it a sip.
You may be confused about this DHA Omega-3 stuff, but don’t worry. The milk doesn’t have any kind of strange vitamin taste. It tastes like chocolate milk, but not syrupy sweet or overly chocolate. To me, it has just the right amount of chocolate.
DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid) Omega-3 is a nutrient that helps support heart, brain and eye health. You can read much more about it at Horizon’s DHA site.
DHA exists naturally in breast milk and is an important nutrient for everyone, particularly kids with their growing minds and bodies.

I’d love to try this milk!
I remember my mom making us chocolate milk with “Bosco” syrup, I’m not even sure they make it any more. My sisters and I enjoyed chocolate milk as a treat after school.
My parents use to tell us it came from a brown cow.
I used to make my chocolate milk with Ovaltine- sooo good. I don’t even like milk plain so the only way I drink it is this way.
My one son discovered chocolate milk by accident and he now LOVES it. He dropped his oreo in his milk and drank until he could reach it. He LOVED the rest of the cup!
simple my kids always want chocolate milk they don’t always get it but they want it

Chocolate milk is my husband’s favorite!!
we used to make “bosco” drippy gooey messy and a lot of fun thanks for the giveaway and the memories
My memories of chocolate milk was that it was so rare that we had any! The prices between white and chocolate were so different that my mother refused to pay the extra except for very special occasions.
seriously i remeber when we would drink the hershey syrup from the can and swish milk in our mouths not to show evidence of having chocolate milk
all the kids in the house (including hubby) LOVE chocolate milk

My fave memory was being an adult and having chocolate milk for the first time
I only use regular milk in cereal. The rest is chocolate!
I used to always drink chocolate milk as a kid. I dont know why I really stopped but I want to have it again.
I REMEMBER GROWING UP WE MADE CHOCOLATE MILK FROM HERSHEY’S COCOA THAT CAME IN THE CAN
I wouldn’t drink white milk when I was a kid. It had to be chocolate, or have chocolate stuff in it.
i was a ovaltine girl growing up- i wouldn’t drink milk otherwise!
My daughter just discovered chocolate milk and now she can’t get enough.
Chocolate milk, made from ovaltine, was a rare treat when I was growing up! I love it now, because I can (sometimes) convince myself to skip a candy bar if I have some chocolate milk!
When I was younger and my Dad worked graveyard, he’d always come home and make me a glass of chocolate milk as I was getting ready for school. I really enjoyed that little treat. 🙂
THANKS!
I was a chocolate milk freak!
I was not allowed to have kool aid or soda as a kid, so chocolate milk was as good as it got! I still love the stuff. 🙂
My kids all love chocolate milk 🙂
I remember back many many yrs ago making chocolate milk with Nestle Quick and being so anxious to drink it, seemed like forever to get it mixed up
Our whole family loves chocolate milk, but we don’t buy it very often.
My favorite memory of chocolate milk…
I drank it once a week on Saturday mornings while watching cartoons and reveling in not having to do anything productive. It was great.
I did many memorable spit-takes with chocolate milk!
My daughter loves chocolate milk.
I never got chocolate milk at home, but I loved drinking it at school. It felt like a real treat. I like to buy it for my kids once a month or so and it’s a real treat to them too.

I love my cornflakes with chocolate milk.
I was always happier when I got chocolate milk when I was a kid!
Chocolate milk was a real treat growing up and rare to find.

I loved chocolate milk as a kid, It was the only kind I’d drink at lunch.
