Just a question
 
Could anybody help me? I need the English Word for  the Spanish "colacao". In Spain, many children drink for breakfast milk with a deluted chocolate ( powder). Does anybody know the answer?.  Thank you.

It �s called Cola-Cao all over the world, I guess you could say it �s chocolate milk or hot chocolate. But most people refer to it the same as they do in Spain as Cola-Cao

Same as above. I vote chocolate milk or hot chocolate. Though hot chocolate could be confused with Spanish hot chocolate (the churro kind). Or maybe people know the brand Nesquick?

chocolate milk...for sure!
 
coz the hot chocolate refers to the thicker winter drink ( the one you would have with your churros!! hahhaa)

I personally don´t say cocoa, but my American family does. Cocoa or hot cocoa. That could work too, though it could be more North American (in my experience)

I call it drinking chocolate." I always have drinking chocolate for breakfast." Cocoa is unsweetened and drinking chocolate is sweetened just like Cola Cao.

I think in the UK we �d call it "chocolate milk" or "Nesquik". Cocoa for me is always hot and usually thick.

In the US we call the drink chololate milk.
 
The chocolate powder can be called by a brand name such as Nesquik or Hershey �s chocolate. 
 
They do not sell Cola-Cao where I live and I had never heard of it.
