Just wondered if anyone could help me work things out please. I am not a hot drink drinker and thus I don't know.

Today I had a medium hot chocolate takeaway from Costa - without cream. I just asked for a hot chocolate. Seeing as I don't use Costa, I don't know if their default is full fat or skimmed milk? Can anyone tell me, so I can work out/find the calories?

Thank you!

    different stores do it differently, I've seen some use semi and some use full fat, they never use skimmed as standard though, I know that much :(

    Took me 2 minutes to google. Unless you asked for skimmed especially, it was full fat and 327 calories. Rest of the macros are in the link.

    Thanks ladies. I did use that link actually, but I just wanted to know if the default was skimmed or fat full. People suggested full fat here and elsewhere so I've used that. Thanks!

    Hi I work in a costa and generally all stores will use full fat milk unless you ask otherwise. Normally Costa don't do semi milk as a rule unless they buy it in specifically.
