Nothing beats the original.

And this is true with Magnolia Chocolait which came in mini glass bottles long before the company decided to put it in tetra packs.

Everything about the old Chocolait screams “natural.”

It was made from all-natural cow’s milk blended with high-grade chocolate.

To enjoy its creamy goodness, you had to put it in the fridge for a while (or longer if you preferred it frozen).

The chocolate part would settle at the bottom of the bottle so you had to shake it well before drinking.

Hearing that trademark pop when opening the paper lid would signal you to start gulping it down.

By the late 1960’s, Chocolait was sold at around 50 centavos.

Choco-Vim, a similar yet cheaper chocolate-milk drink, cost 35 centavos.

Both were manufactured by Magnolia; Chocolait was sold in square squat bottles while Choco-Vim came in straight-sided ones.

The latter eventually phased out, while the former evolved and remains available to this day.
