Horizon Organic Chocolate Milk With DHA Omega-3 Review and Giveaway



One of Kaelyn's favorite things to drink is chocolate milk. It's not something she gets a lot of, but when she does it's quite the treat! We try to give her organic milk whenever possible, so I was pretty excited to learn that our favorite brand, Horizon, has come out with a new Organic Lowfat Chocolate Milk with DHA Omega-3!

This new Horizon product provides an easy way to add calcium and DHA to your family's diet. As many are probably aware, DHA Omega-3 is a very important nutrient that helps support things like heart, brain and eye health. Since we're always looking for the best when it comes to the foods Kaelyn eats, I was thrilled to learn we would have the opportunity to review it!

We were sent two coupons so we could try Horizon Organic Lowfat Chocolate Milk with DHA Omega-3 for ourselves.

Before drinking it, I wasn't sure what to expect. In the past I have tried 'healthy drinks and foods' that tasted bland and, well....'healthy'. I was hoping that this drink was as great tasting as it is for our bodies. After a couple of sips...I can tell you myself, my husband and Kaelyn all agree that it tastes great! It tastes lighter like other lowfat milks you may have tried, but still has a great sweet taste that you'd expect from a chocolate milk. I was very impressed and plan to purchase this again for our family. It's yummy and gives Kaelyn important nutrients she needs. You can go here to check out the ingredients and nutrition facts of this product.

Buy It: You can check out their store locator to find a location near you to purchase this and other Horizon products.

Win It:
Horizon has kindly offered TWO readers each, 2 coupons for a FREE half gallon of this product and 2 coupons for $1 off Horizon Organic lowfat Chocolate Milk With DHA Omega-3 (that's 4 total coupons for TWO Winners)!

  10. Ever since I was pregnant I switched to Soy milk. It seemed to help settle my stomach more when I was feeling sick. We still use it today and I would love to try a new brand, especially chocolate! :) Jenprincess88 at aol dot com

  33. I use to buy the children cocolate milk when it was low fat but they quit carrying it at our store so I didn't want to buy them the full fat milk. I would love to try this because the children really love chocolate milk.

  128. Well. We'd like to try it for three reasons...

    YOU said it tasted "lighter" than other chocolate drinks.(others are so thick n heavy).

    It has DHA I know our kids are NOT getting enough of.

    It is CHOCOLATE!!!!
