The six teaspoons that divided the nation:
MILO settles the infamous teaspoon debate and serves up FREE MILO
Former Prime Minister Jacinda Arden recently shared a social media post from her travels around the world asking the ‘right’ way to make a MILO:
“I grew up being told I could only make a Milo with one or two teaspoons of powder. I picked up a can recently though, and apparently you make it with six?! Is that an extreme Milo to liquid ratio?! Or is that the way it’s always been?”
This Tuesday 10 June from 7am – 4pm, MILO will be giving away the choc malt drink, made with three teaspoons of MILO and milk – served hot or cold.
For one day only, MILO will be turning Three Lamps Ponsonby into ‘Three Teaspoons’ to remind Kiwis of the right way to enjoy their MILO.
Nestlé New Zealand Head of Marketing, Fern Castellanos said, “Kiwis are passionate about how they have their MILO. Recently, Jacinda Ardern recently expressed her surprise at how MILO is served in other countries.
“Her now famous post about MILO from abroad, served with six teaspoons, shocked the internet and left thousands of Kiwis reminiscing about their childhood memories and questioning their own MILO preparation rituals.
“So, we’re bringing fans a reminder of our Kiwi way of serving MILO, with three heaped teaspoons and milk. Come on down to ‘Three Teaspoons’ and join us to raise a mug to MILO – the Kiwi way!”
If you can’t make it down to Three Lamps (or Three Teaspoons) on June 10, you can purchase MILO in most supermarkets across the country, MILO is available in a variety of options, including MILO Mocha, MILO PRO (with added protein) MILO 30% Less Added Sugar, MILO Restore and MILO Frothy.
