I used to prefer hot chocolate with milk, but eventually noticed my stomach would churn every time (eventually, after far too long, I realized I had a lactose intolerance like many in my family). I started using water instead. At first it didn't taste as good, but I got very used to it (quite quickly, honestly). Now, whenever I (rarely) have hot chocolate with milk it tastes too rich. How about you?
Edit- And yes, I did try it with Lactaid milk, but I became so used to water by that point.
Edit 2- Ever since we got a Keurig machine, that's the only way I've made my hot chocolate. I don't use traditional powder anymore.
Also, when I used to make hot chocolate with milk, I microwaved it. Perhaps that could contribute to my shifted preference. I'm sure it'd be nicer if the milk was heated on the stove. I really liked McDonald's hot chocolate and I'm pretty sure that has milk.
