Milo Dinosaur
Milo Dinosaur is an over-the-top delicious drink that is really popular in Singapore. A hawker centre staple, this is not a drink for people on a diet, as it's extra sweet, extra creamy and extra comforting!

Ingredients
- 4 Tablespoons unsweetened milo powder or to taste. If using sweetened milo, reduce sugar used. Get the Australian milo if you can- it tastes better than the Malaysian or Thai one!
- 1½ Tablespoons sugar or to taste. The recipe is super flexible. You can also use brown sugar.
- ¼ Cup hot water If you only have cold water it's a bit more difficult to dissolve the milo and sugar. A trick would be to put them and the water in a mason jar and shake vigorously to dissolve.
- ½ Cup whole fat milk Remember milo is a drink of excess! Low-fat is not the way to go (though you can if you want, of course.) In fact, I recommended using evaporated or condensed milk too!
- 5 cubes ice Use frozen milo to avoid the melted ice diluting the drink.
For the topping
- 2 Tablespoons Milo powder or to taste. Substitute: cocoa powder.
Instructions
- Add the milo and sugar to the cup and mix well.
- Pour in the water and stir till more or less dissolved.
- Add the milk followed by the ice cubes.
- Top with the extra powder!
Cup of Yum
Notes
- Storage: keep in the fridge for 2-3 days in an airtight container so feel free to batch make and prep ahead for gatherings.
- You can pimp it up by blending it with ice cream, or topping with ice cream and whipped cream.
- Note: the nutritional information is an estimate automatically calculated using the WPRM recipe maker and I am not responsible for its accuracy. It doesn't account for the nutritional profile of Milo so I would not use it as a guide!
