Milk Chocolate Drink - Food Photography | The Documentary Photographer

Friday, 29th July, 2011 ? 9:00 am

When you buy a tub of cocoa, you likely have one thought: hot chocolate ? one of life?s great blessings. Yet, have you ever used it to make a cold chocolate milkshake in the summer?

I remember growing up in Holland that cocoa had a dual, season-dependent purpose. In fact, we drank more of it cold than hot. Moving back to the UK many years later, I don?t recall it being marketed or consumed in that way. Mostly, it was a winter drink. Same here in Ireland. Or perhaps I?d just grown up and switched to Old Speckled Hen or Merlot by then.

Anyway, having produced the packaging photographs for Java Republic?s new The Other Bean For Kids drink, it was interesting to hear that the company is marketing it as a double purpose drink. I couldn?t resist:

Drinking it brought back memories. And it?s creating new ones for the next generation:
