(6 pack) Nestle Nesquik No Sugar Added Chocolate Powder, 16 oz, Can, Makes Instant Chocolate Milk

I do recommend this as I have also purchased it a lot in the past. It is no sugar added which is perfect for me to use with unsweetened vanilla almond milk. It takes really good that way without breaking the high sugar bank. I don't recall much in calories. There is no after taste that I have experienced yet. I use it in a Blender bottle and it mixes well. It only has a chocolate taste. I love this product. I do find that sometimes, it may just be me...I like to put in a little too much because it tastes so good. I am guilty. For the greater good for a well made tasting product.

If you're looking for a low-calorie way to enjoy Nesquik's chocolate milk, look no further because this is your sign! I will caution, however, that this is not sugar-free. As the label states, it's zero sugar ADDED. Powdered chocolate contains sugar itself, and while this powder contains no high-fructose corn syrup, please don't make the mistake that this is completely sugar-free or zero-calorie because it isn't. In fact, per serving, the powder has about 7g of sugars (minus any sugars in the milk), a far cry from zero-sugar and sugar-free. That aside, the powder makes a refreshing drink; it's chocolatey goodness that tastes wonderfully creamy when mixed up in a glass of cold milk (is there any other way to use this?). While by itself, the mix makes a wonderful drink, I found the taste VERY chocolatey. For someone who is more fond of milk chocolate than darker chocolates, maybe even a bit too chocolatey (raises hand!). Since there is no added sugar, the majority of the flavor comes from the chocolate, so you also get more of the bitterness that comes along with unsweetened chocolate. All the containers I've used have all tasted like they were made with medium dark chocolate, which is still delicious in and of itself, just not to my particular taste preference. If the dark chocolate flavor proves to be too strong, I found that a single packet of Sweet N Low added to a pint glass of milk with a tablespoon of the mix more than makes up for the sweetness of the missing sugars without increasing the calorie count. And if a full packet is too sweet, half the packet works as well. Both methods work wonders tempering the chocolate but not overpowering it so both the sweetness and the chocolate can be enjoyed. I also noticed that it takes a bit more agitative stirring to get this powder fully dissolved when compared to regular Nesquik chocolate milk powder. If not stirred properly or long enough, one might wind up with powder clumps at the bottom of the glass. It's not a terrible problem to have, but it's also easy to fix: Just a little extra stirring will go a long way toward making a completely smooth chocolate milk. So, for a refreshing and delightful treat on a hot summer day, this will hit the spot while allowing one to stick to their dietary guidelines without too much deviation in the carbohydrate department. Enjoy!
