Malt drink

Malt drink is kind of like chocolate milk, but instead of chocolate, it is made from something called malt. Malt is made from a special kind of grain called barley. The barley is soaked in water and then dried to make something called malted barley. This malted barley is then crushed up and mixed with water to make a sweet, malty liquid.

This liquid can be mixed with other things like milk, sugar, and even fruit juice to create a tasty drink. Malt drink is a popular drink in many parts of the world, especially in places where it is too hot for cocoa or other heavier drinks.

Malt drink is often sold in powdered form, which means you have to mix it with water or milk before you can drink it. Some people even like to add ice cream to their malt drink to make it even richer and creamier. So if you ever see a bottle or box labeled "malt drink," now you know what it is!
