New and Improved Ovaltine

by

My daughter is a chocolate milk addict. At one point, that was the only way she would drink milk. I eventually came to dread buying chocolate syrup as I didn’t see any nutritional value in it– it was just added sugar. This was about the time Ovaltine came into our lives, and we’ve been hooked ever since.

Now there’s a new reason to make the switch to Ovaltine– The new and improved recipe has 12 vitamins and minerals and no artificial flavors and colors only from natural sources.

This is big news for us as I am slowly weeding out products with artificial ingredients.

My daughter and I tried all three flavors –rich chocolate, classic malt and chocolate malt– and we love them all. My favorite is the malt and my daughter’s is chocolate malt. I have yet to do a taste test with the old Ovaltine recipe, but it seems similar.

To celebrate new and improved Ovaltine, I am giving away a fun Ovaltine prize pack to two lucky readers.

The giveaway package includes: three canisters of new recipe OVALTINE (one of each flavor), a recipe booklet, a countertop straw dispenser, and a $25 Visa gift card.

    My favorite summer childhood memory involves my Twin, a show, and a educational robot toy. One afternoon, sister and I were bored so we decided to put on a show for our parents. We got out all of our old Halloween costumes. We had this educational robot toy that played cassettes tapes, and put Garth Brooks in. We even strung Christmas lights around the room. We did dramatic scenes. We sang. We danced. Our parents applauded us. We never did it again.

    My Grandpa grew watermelons and he always had one chilled and ready to eat. My cousins and I would sit on the front porch swing and eat till we couldn’t hold anymore. It was a nice way to cool off!

    My grandparents had a cottage on a lake, and we would spend most of our summers there. We had huge bonfires on the beach, with lots of hot dogs and marshmallows!

    My favorite summer childhood summer memories are going to the lake almost every weekend and going out on the boat fishing or just being at the beach and swimming and cook outs.

  425. Judy Bradley

    I don’t know if this is healthy, but it is good, and I remember my mom making this cooling treat for us. We used chilled 7-up or similar, then put in raspberry sherbet, like a float. To me it sounds weird, but it is delicious and very cooling! My mom doesn’t even like raspberry, so I don’t know how she came up with this!

  443. MJMoens

    When I was a kid, my mother would take some ice cold milk, and mix in some Ovaltine … soooo yummy !!

    My favorite healthy summer snack is Watermelon. I just buy a huge one and then chop it up and throw the Bowls in the fridge. That way there is always a refreshing healthy snack on hand.
