MILO® :
4.68 out of 5 based on 483 reviews.

This MILO product review is perfect for Mums looking to meet the daily nutritional needs of their children.

Because we all know there is nothing worse than a child who lacks the energy needed to get them through their day.

But sometimes finding nutritious, energy boosting drinks that your kids will love can be a bit of a struggle. Which is why, in the MILO product review, we asked MoM Members from all over Australia and their kids to put MILO to the ultimate test.

See what Victoria and her children thought of MILO® after participating in the MoM MILO® product review …

Details of the MILO Product Review

As part of the MILO product review, we had Mums look for a tin of MILO at the supermarket.  We then asked them to use it everyday with their children as a supplement to their busy schooling and sporting lives.  The results speak for themselves!  See below for their thoughts, reviews and star ratings.

MILO is a nutrient rich, low GI malt powder drink, which gives kids who need a boost, the nourishing energy they need to take on the day.

As Mum we are all aware that milk is an essential part of our children’s diet. You may be surprised to learn that MILO adds even more nutrients to milk. In fact, MILO adds 32% more protein, 70% more calcium, plus more iron (30% RDI) and more vitamin D (32% RDI). MILO is also low GI to provide sustained energy for active kids. How good is that?

MILO_750g_AU_No_HSR_FOP_1_46_resized_50_againPLUS MILO is made with four simple main ingredients – malt barley, milk powder, sugar and cocoa plus 8 vitamins and minerals (calcium, iron, vitamin B2, B3, B6, B12, C and D). The unique combination of ingredients gives MILO the delicious choc malt taste and crunch that kids love.

Whether you’re powering up for training for a big game or you’ve just done your best and need a nutritious boost … MILO puts a smile on your face and a spring in your step!

How do you drink your Milo?

MILO is a great way to encourage children to drink milk and meet daily nutrient needs such as calcium and iron. Simply add 3 level teaspoons of MILO to 200ml milk and stir until combined for a delicious, nourishing drink. Serve hot or cold.

Where can I buy MILO?

MILO is available in 200gm, 450gm, 750gm, 1kg, 1.1 kg tins from Coles, Woolworths, IGA and Big W. For more information visit MILO.

  • Love that MILO!

    I love it for my kids and also for myself. Hot or cold. Hot as a nice warm drink on a cold day. Cold as a nice cool drink on a hot day! Sprinkled on ice cream. Eaten straight from the jar. It all works. I can convince myself this is a somewhat healthy treat also with all those vitamins and minerals, but seriously, we love it for the taste first and foremost. I always keep a jar in my pantry. Even better when I can buy it on special rather than full price!

    We are still loving the Milo review! Kids have been getting creative, mixed with cold milk, warm milk, sprinkled on their ice cream, dipped strawberries in it and it’s always fun to see who gets the biggest Milo moustache.

  • Loved the old family favorite

    We hadn’t purchased milo in a while in our house but since reviewing the product it will now be a staple in our house. The kids absolutely loved it and I loved experimenting with it. We had hot Milos, cold Milos, milo milkshakes, had it on ice cream, in muffins and made a cake with it. The possibilities are endless and I loved that it was nutritious!

    Milo , the kids absolutely loved it. It is easy to use and easy to mix in either hot or cold water. My kids have now decided that it is their go to drink after school and before school.

  • Packs a punch

    Milo is an awesome treat for our little one (made extra special with a marshmellow), as well as a treat for us big kids too. It was never something I associated with a “healthy” drink, howeve, since begining my breastfeeding journey I have found it an invaluable resource to aid in milk production. Our household are now firm Milo drinkers!

  • Milo Mayhem: Four Kids, One Can, Endless Imaginative Elixirs!

    Oh, the Milo Marathon – picture four kids hyped up on “vitamins and minerals” zipping around the house like they’re training for the Milo Olympics! It’s a daily ritual now—each child has their unique Milo preference. One’s a Milo-on-the-rocks kinda person, while the other thinks Milo is a 5-star hot cocoa substitute. Witnessing them stirring up their daily dose, it’s like watching mini baristas prepping the day’s energy elixir. Who knew that a can of powder would turn into a kid-fueled café? A spoonful of chocolatey goodness mixed with imagination—call it the Milo magic potion! #MiloMadness #ChocoChaos

    the best part of my night before i go to bed is a warm hot milo, i heat up the milk in the microwave and add my 3 spoons of milo, i mainly have this in winter but it’s the only way i’ll drink it. my 5 year old gets one a few times a week for after breakfast or dessert. the warm milk helps calm them before bed

  • Milo is bloody amazing

    Nestle Milo is fun filled energy and nutrition-filled, chocolate flavored powder. Two spoonfuls of Milo with warm milk, early in the morning can really give a kickstart to your day. Even at times when you get back home a little early and are too tired, this is the best drink that can be taken to freshen you up and also fill your tummy.

    I had received Milo Trial packs I was exhausted and thought of trying Milo.

    Omg! It was yummy and so cho-co-late-ey! I enjoyed it. oh my god, the powder can be eaten dry as too. It is pretty expensive compared to other drinks, but well worth every cent!

  • A breastfeeding Mums best friend

    We all know that Milo tastes awesome, gets the family to drink their milk and has a firm place on the weekly shopping list. What i have discovered is how much Milo can help with milk production in breastfeeding Mums. Each morning, I use Milo to make a mocha and it truly has boosted my supply. Such an easy and tasty way to help my body produce for my little one!

  • Always a winner

    A household staple for us since I was a little kid. Now with 4 active growing boys of my own I couldn’t imagine not having milo on hand! It’s good for a quick Brekky it’s great as an arvo snack and it’s loved on some vanilla ice-cream after dinner. Gives them a treat and boost without as much of the sugar and additives in other options. We love our milo!

  • Guilt free, nutricious drink for everyone in the family

    Milo has a lot less sugar than other chocolate milk drinks and has nutrition benefits so there is no guilt in giving the kids Milo. The whole family love to drink it cold in summer and hot in winter, giving them vitamins and minerals from both the milk and the milo, as well as long lasting energy to get out and about as active kids and adults. I would definitely buy again – we always have a tin of Milo in our cupboard as running out is not an option for our family.

    Who doesn’t like a good cup of milo. Not only does it refresh the soul but it makes you feel energised and renewed after a delicious cup of it. I would recommend we have stop for the day to have a soothing cup of cool
    or warm milo to revitalise you for the rest of the day. Always convenient to have some plus a spare in the pantry. Also your kids will love it, let’s not forget about them.

  • Classic

    We all grew up with milo. Milo drinks. Milo on icecream. That sneaky spoon of pure Milo you’d sneak when mum wasn’t looking …. or maybe two! I love that I can now share the same things with my own child. And the best thing is. They have never changed the taste. So many brands mess with a good thing trying to improve it. Keep up the good work Milo. We love it.

    I have been a lover of Milo my whole life and now my children love it too. It can be a hot or cold drink, made with water or milk. It is a delicious low GI malt powder drink that constrains 8 essential vitamins and minerals. I personally love to sprinkle a bit of Milo over my ice-cream to make a yummy chocolate treat. I have even had Milo sprinkled on hot buttered toast as an alternative to chocolate spread.

  • Very Delicious!

    I love the Milo can. It always features sporty people on there as I associate Milo with sport. It’s always well labelled, as I can see the name Milo really well on there.
    The tins are always really easy to open with a spoon. The colour of the Milo is a nice brown as well.

  • Household staple

    Milo is a household staple for us. With 2 children aged 9 & 12 and living in a cold climate nothing beats a hot chocolate on a cold day to warm us all up after braving the weather outside for some exercise. It gives us all a boost to keep going for the remainder of the day. And secretly it’s a winner on ice cream or in a smoothie in the warmer months.
