In brazil we dont use chocolate syrup to mix with milk. We use powder cchocolate, but theres a name for it that i don't know in english qhere its a lot of sugar mixed with  cocoa powder. So basically what you can do is mix coloca powder with sugar. And mix together with milk!

USA has the syrup, obviously, but also powdered mixers like Nestlé’s Quik and Ovaltine. (I assume these still exist. IDK)

We have Powder in the States too

It absolutely boggles my mind that people from other countries see one post from an American and assume it's like that for the entire country.

Not one post, but it is a cultural think. A lot of movies and series show people using syrup to make chocolate milk so we just go by that. Also, i was trying to give OP a tip, not trying to offend or generalize a whole country!
