I gather from a linguist friend that there's a lot of variation in what the concoctions are actually called in different areas.<BR/><BR/>Malt sugar used to be available by a company called Horlicks, in powder and tablet form (yeah, can you tell where I got MY eating habits?) and from a company called Carnation, I still see it in powder form in grocery stores (in milk and chocolate flavors).<BR/><BR/>In the good ole US of A, if it's sugary and fattening, you can be pretty sure we either have it or will adopt it quickly.Bardiachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11846065504793800266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17974015.post-16295591226554675532007-06-19T03:01:00.000-07:002007-06-19T03:01:00.000-07:00So it's like a chocolate thickshake?

I've never heard of it, anyway. <BR/><BR/>You guys have all the good food :)StyleyGeekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10287051608503966129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17974015.post-24611573082934333352007-06-18T22:21:00.000-07:002007-06-18T22:21:00.000-07:00StyleyGeek, are you teasing me?

Or have you never enjoyed the foodgasm that is a malt?<BR/><BR/>Take chocolate ice cream (or whatever flavor you like), several scoops<BR/>milk, fill up around the scoops some<BR/>malted milk sugar (from malted barley), a couple teaspoons?<BR/><BR/>mix briskly. You want it to be icy cold, so thick that you can barely pull it through a straw, and smoooth! You should just taste the malt with the chocolate.<BR/><BR/>(Some places use vanilla ice cream and a flavor syrup, but use chocolate ice cream!)Bardiachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11846065504793800266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17974015.post-24271063027257848602007-06-18T02:42:00.000-07:002007-06-18T02:42:00.000-07:00Is it this?Is it <A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malt_beverage" REL="nofollow">this?</A>StyleyGeekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10287051608503966129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17974015.post-4507439506185940932007-06-18T02:37:00.000-07:002007-06-18T02:37:00.000-07:00I'm guessing from context that a malt isn't a whis...I'm guessing from context that a malt isn't a whiskey :) But it sounds like you might have needed one after all that cycling!StyleyGeekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10287051608503966129noreply@blogger.com
