Choose a canned multipack if guests need individual cans and the serving size and formulation suit them: Nurishment sells its Original range in cans, and UK listings from Amazon UK and Kitwave Retail identify 12-unit chocolate cases with approximately 400 ml per can. If smaller individual drinks matter more than cans, Tesco lists Yazoo No Added Sugar Chocolate Milk Drink in six 200 ml cartons. For either format, check the exact pack’s ingredients, allergens, date and storage instructions before serving it at Easter.
Start with how you will serve the drinks: a can, a smaller carton and a bottle solve different problems at an Easter gathering.
If each guest needs a can, check both the case count and the volume of each drink. Nurishment describes its Original range as available in cans; Amazon UK and Kitwave Retail list 12-unit chocolate cases at approximately 400 ml per can.
If cans are optional, Tesco’s Yazoo No Added Sugar Chocolate Milk Drink comes as six 200 ml cartons. Compare that serving size with the people you are buying for rather than treating every multipack as interchangeable.
Read the ingredients and allergen declaration for the exact flavour before serving it. The Food Standards Agency’s UK guidance says prepacked food must carry a full ingredients list with allergenic ingredients emphasised.
Choose when: You need to hand out cans rather than pour drinks or substitute cartons.
Bear in mind: The listed Nurishment cases contain nutritionally enriched milk drinks in servings of approximately 400 ml per can, according to Amazon UK and Kitwave Retail.
Choose when: Smaller, individually packed drinks matter more than a metal can; Tesco lists Yazoo chocolate milk drink in six 200 ml cartons.
Bear in mind: Cartons do not meet a requirement to give each guest a can.
Choose when: You plan to pour drinks rather than hand out sealed portions; Tesco’s range includes a 1 litre Yazoo bottle.
Bear in mind: You will need a way to serve it and must follow the bottle’s instructions after opening.
| Priority | What to check | Your needs |
|---|---|---|
| Container and count | Confirm whether each unit is a can, carton or bottle; check the number of units and whether it covers your guests. | I want to hand out one sealed drink per guest, and a carton will not do if cans are required. |
| Serving size | Compare volume per unit, not just pack count. Amazon UK and Kitwave Retail list Nurishment chocolate cases at approximately 400 ml per can; Tesco lists Yazoo cartons at 200 ml each. | For smaller individual portions, I would consider the 200 ml cartons if the container need not be a can. |
| Ingredients and allergens | Read the exact flavour’s ingredients and emphasised allergens. Tesco declares milk for the Yazoo chocolate carton multipack; check every other chosen pack separately. | Before serving guests, I need to know whether the particular drink contains an ingredient they must avoid. |
| Nutrition label | Compare the nutrition information per 100 ml and per serving on the packs you are considering. Do not use a no-added-sugar label in place of the full panel. | A front-of-pack phrase is not enough for me to compare differently sized drinks. |
| Date and storage | Check whether the pack says use by or best before, its date, and its storage instructions, including after opening. GOV.UK distinguishes safety-related use-by dates from quality-related best-before dates. | I’m shopping ahead for Easter, so the drinks need to be suitable to keep and serve on the day. |
UK listings include Nurishment cans and Yazoo cartons, so a multipack result alone does not establish the container format.
Check the container, unit count and volume in the listing before ordering for an event where cans are needed.
Tesco labels its Yazoo chocolate multipack no added sugar and also declares that it contains milk. Those statements answer different questions.
Check both the nutrition information and the ingredients and allergen declaration on the exact flavour.
Amazon UK and Kitwave Retail list Nurishment chocolate cases with approximately 400 ml per can, while Tesco’s Yazoo multipack contains 200 ml cartons. The number of units does not tell you their serving size.
Work out how many individual drinks you need and check the volume of each one.
GOV.UK explains that use-by dates concern food safety, whereas best-before dates concern quality. The distinction matters when buying ahead for Easter.
Read the date type and storage instructions on the pack you receive. Do not use a drink after its use-by date.
These examples help distinguish formats; a brand appearing here does not mean every one of its drinks comes in a canned multipack.

Eight 250 ml vanilla-flavour shakes provide individual portions. This is presented as a protein shake rather than a conventional family milkshake; check that its formulation suits the people being served. The product information states that it contains milk, so read the exact pack’s ingredients, allergen declaration, date and storage instructions.
Yes. Nurishment says its Original range is available in cans, and Amazon UK and Kitwave Retail list 12-unit chocolate cases. Check the container, flavour, unit size and availability of the case you intend to order.
No. Amazon UK and Kitwave Retail list the Nurishment chocolate cases at approximately 400 ml per can, while Tesco’s Yazoo chocolate multipack has six 200 ml cartons. Nurishment is described as a nutritionally enriched milk drink, so compare the formulation as well as the portion.
Check the exact drink’s ingredients and allergen declaration before serving it. Nurishment describes its Original chocolate drink as made with milk, and Tesco declares milk in the Yazoo chocolate carton multipack. The Food Standards Agency’s UK guidance says allergens must be emphasised in the ingredients list of prepacked food.
No. Tesco’s Yazoo No Added Sugar Chocolate Milk Drink declares milk. Read its allergen information separately from the no-added-sugar claim, and use the nutrition panel to check the values on the pack you choose.
Check the date printed on the drink you receive and whether it is a use-by or best-before date. GOV.UK says use-by dates relate to safety and best-before dates to quality; do not use a drink after its use-by date, and follow the pack’s storage instructions.
