My 8 y.o. is a hot chocolate aficionado, lol! We're going on the Wonder again for the second time soon, but I can't remember how the hot cocoa works... is it a machine near the sodas on Deck 9, that makes the cocoa w/ water? I know I can go into the coffees shop (w/out her) and get one made w/ milk, but that's an extra cost. Is there anywhere/anyway to get hot chocolate made w/ milk for "free"?

And, actually, she also loves cold chocolate milk. I can't remember if if they have that in the MDRs. Or if it's not on the menu but they can get it, does that mean it's more of a hassle for them? (At home when we go to a restaurant, the server often has to get it made in the bar for us, which is a little extra work- not that they complain, I just know it's more work and am appreciative). I know Disney is all about the customer service and will happily get pretty much whatever we want, but I'd like to know if it's more hassle so I can tip extra for their extra work.
 
I believe they have packets don't they? Although not 100% sure hoping someone responds. There is chocolate milk in the buffet as I took some back to my room last time and put them in my fridge (Nesquick in bottle). And yes you can get in MDRs too
 
They have a hot chola the machine at the self service drinks area and if it is not working then they gave packets there.

Severs can get you chocolate milk and it's available in beach blanket.
 
Nesquick in a bottle would be awesome :-) Is there a microwave for public use? Thanks!
 

We were on in May and it was in a machine on deck 9. I did not notice it being "watery" and I am quite pickey about my hot chocolate. I prefer a dark chocolate and it seemed good. I added a bit of whole milk to it to help cool it down because it came out HOT!!!
 
Also I add creamer sometimes to my hot chocolate if its from a machine as this can add the consistency to make it very creamy
 
We were on the Wonder November 2014 then again in July 2015, the machine in July was new not the same as November and the hot chocolate was a lot better.
 
When we were on the Magic in June. On deck 9, the Hot Cocoa machine dispensed hot water and we had Nestle Rich Chocolate mix packets. I put vanilla ice cream in mine from Eye Scream. It was delicious.

The Magic has the Hot Chocolate machine as above. The coffee/tea machines also dispense hot water.
 
No microwaves for public use but they can warm things up for you.

Thanks, I don't want to inconvenience them but that's good to know.

Good plan. That would work fine for me, we'll see what DD says about it, though, lol. That kid is picky! (Our fault, I know...)

Good tip, thanks!

Hm, interesting, that sounds promising!

Also, thanks to the person who posted the picture. :-)
 
The picture shows the old machine, not what is currently on the Wonder

The photo is from the Magic taken last week, and you can't get newer than that, I have photos of the older machines, these are are newer ones.

I am not positive but I think that the Wonder has a different one now. I was on 3 weeks ago

Yes I didn't say mine was the Wonder just put it there as an example however I understand these are the ones across the fleet now. I wasn't on the Wonder recently but was on it in Alaska in the last and it had an older bulky one then.
