If you caught all the details from our #DisneyKids Preschool Playdate, I alluded to making a kids’ drink (um, let’s be honest… I had at least two cups!) honoring Miles from Tomorrowland. This spacey concoction is a cool chocolate drink, with a little bit of galactic garnish. I first heard the words, “Cosmic Cocoa” when watching an episode of Miles From Tomorrowland with Red (we watch most of his shows together). Miles and his sister enjoyed a cup of this grog after solving a few mysteries and using teamwork to save the ship. Though I can’t remember what the episode was called, I knew exactly what to do with the gifted box of chocolate Nesquik powder in our #Disneykids preschool playdate box.
I made a huge pitcher for our neighborhood party, using 6 cups of cold, fresh milk and 12 Tablespoons of Nesquik powder. I made sure to use a large whisk to mix the drink ahead of time, and gently swirl the Cosmic Cocoa before setting the pitcher out for pouring.
James Bond had it wrong… Stirred roughly is the way to go! 😉

Notes
All the kids wanted a fun cup of cool chocolate topped with plenty of star sprinkles when they heard it was a Miles drink! The show appeals to both boys and girls (our whole family is a fan of this Disney Junior show), so it was the perfect themed choice for our Disney Junior playdate.
Here’s a short video clip that I made with Nesquik at the Mom2.0 2016 Summit about Cosmic Cocoa!
That sounds so yum! That cartoon sounds cute, too. Mine are older, so I am out of the Disney Junior loop these days.
That looks delicious and fun. I love that starry whipped cream topping. Totes adorbs.
I love cocoa, it’s one of my favorite drinks when the weather is cold. This looks like a fun cocoa recipe for kids and adults alike.
You only had two cups? I would have had SO much more. That Cosmic Cocoa looks super yummy.
What a cute idea! I love that you used star sprinkles on the top to add an extra burst of cosmic 🙂
Sounds delicious!
I do love me some hot cocoa! Those star sprinkles are so cute!
What a fun festive treat! We love matching our snacks to our entertainment.
Yum! This looks easy to whip up. The star sprinkles are a nice touch.
This looks like my niece will love it!
She is a big fan of chocolate drinks!
This is so fun! I would love a cup right now. You could make it hot or cold too I think.
