How it's used
Refers specifically to the pre-packaged or prepared beverage found in convenience stores or cafes. It is almost exclusively used for the sweet, milky variety rather than plain cocoa. When ordering at a local cafe or cha chaan teng, people often just say 朱古力, which implies a hot or cold chocolate drink made with powder or syrup.
