How they differ, and questions (tap to open)

Milo, Bournvita and Ovaltine are chocolate malt powders you stir into hot milk or water. All three mix the same way, so pick the taste you grew up with. Milo and Bournvita are the names most West African homes know. Ovaltine is the one many American and Caribbean homes know. Add a spoon of Nido or Peak milk powder for the way it tastes back home.

Questions we get

Can I drink Milo cold?

Yes. Mix it in a little hot water first so it dissolves, then add cold milk and ice.

What are Milo cubes?

Small pressed cubes of Milo powder you eat as a snack, popular with kids in West Africa.

Is Bournvita the same as Milo?

No. Both are chocolate malt drinks but they are made by different companies and taste different.
