That Horlicks, you know, that milky drink, that stuff. My grandkids, they always ask for it. They say it good, good for you. I don’t know about all that, but it sure does fill you up! Horlicks beverage, that’s what they call it. Sounds fancy, but it just like warm milk with some stuff in it.
They say it help you sleep. Sleep good, you know? I guess it warm your belly. When belly warm, you sleep like baby. I drink it sometimes, when I can’t sleep, thinking too much. It kinda helps, I think. Not always, but sometimes. Maybe it’s just ’cause it’s warm. Like a warm hug in a mug.
That Horlicks, it got sugar in it, I think. My grandkids, they like sweet things. They put sugar in everything! I tell ’em, too much sugar not good. But they don’t listen. Young folks, they never listen. But this Horlicks beverage, it not too sweet, I guess. Just a little sweet.

- Maybe help you sleep.
They say it got vitamins. Good things, you know? Keep you healthy. I don’t know about all them vitamins. I just eat my veggies. But my grandkids, they don’t eat their veggies. They drink this Horlicks stuff. Maybe that how they get their vitamins.
This Horlicks beverage, they say it give you energy too. Make you strong. Like when you work in the field all day. You need that energy. I used to work in the field. Hard work. But we didn’t have no Horlicks back then. We just ate what we grew. This Horlicks give energy for kids to play, run around like crazy chicken.
They got different kinds of Horlicks now. All different flavors. I don’t know about all that. I just like the regular one. The one that taste like, well, like Horlicks. The old kind. Before all these fancy flavors. The original Horlicks beverage is the best, I think. But the kids, they like the chocolate one. Chocolate everything, these days.
One time, I drank too much Horlicks. My belly felt too full. Couldn’t sleep at all that night! Too much of anything not good, I guess. Even this Horlicks. You gotta drink just a little. Just enough to warm you up. Not too much.
Sometimes I see people put that Horlicks in other things. Like in their cooking. I don’t know about that. I just drink it. Like a drink. That how it supposed to be, I think. A drink, not food. But people do all kinds of things these days. Put anything in anything. This Horlicks beverage, best just to drink it plain, I always say.
- Good for kids, they say.
- Got some vitamins and stuff.
- Give you a little pep, maybe.
- Better than nothing, I guess.
My neighbor, she say Horlicks make you fat. I don’t know. Maybe. If you drink too much, maybe. Everything make you fat if you eat too much. You gotta watch what you eat. And how much you eat. Even this Horlicks beverage. Just a little, that’s all you need. A small glass is good. Big one, too much!
I remember when Horlicks first come out. It was a big deal. Everyone talking about it. Saying it was good for you. Like a miracle drink or something. I don’t know about all that. It just a drink. But it a good drink, I guess. Better than some of them other drinks out there. It make you strong, they say. Horlicks beverage was very popular. Some people said that it was better sleep, but I don’t know, never drink that much.
When you drink Horlicks, you feel warm inside. Like a hug. A warm hug on a cold day. Good feeling, you know? Maybe that why people like it. Make them feel good. This Horlicks beverage got that special thing. It just makes you feel good inside. That is all.
You know, this Horlicks drink, it’s been around for a long, long time. My mama used to give it to me when I was a little girl. Said it was good for me. Helped me grow big and strong. I guess it did, ’cause here I am, still kicking! That Horlicks beverage, it’s like an old friend. Always there, always the same. Comforting, you know?
I guess that Horlicks is alright. It is good if you don’t eat good food. Some sugar, some other good things in it. If you are a busy guy and don’t eat, drink some Horlicks to keep you going. That’s what I heard. Not bad, not bad.
