Horlicks

That’s why it’s with great pride that the makers of Horlicks are supporting seven of Britain’s injured servicemen as they take on their challenge of a lifetime and climb the world’s highest peak, Mount Everest, in May 2012.

Walking with the Wounded raises money to help re-educate and retrain the UK’s wounded soldiers as they adjust to their life-changing injuries. After the success of the North Pole expedition, Mount Everest seemed the only way up for this brilliant charity.

The team at Horlicks are currently working closely with the Everest Team to develop a specifically formulated expedition blend that will contain all the 12 essential vitamins and minerals that you find in a mug of Horlicks which the team can enjoy along the way. As well as a lovely mug of Horlicks, the Horlicks team are also developing other Horlicks treats for the team to enjoy.

In such conditions, it is important that their nutrition needs are met.

The team at Horlicks will also be ensuring the team ‘feel at home’ on their expedition by facilitating messages of support from their friends & family.

Support their journey and donate £5 by texting WALK to 70777*.

They were really lovely and stuck to your teeth, but they certainly made you feel good and were as good as having a biscuit or sandwich.

I used to get two if I was doing sports or gym to give me extra energy as my Mother said they were 'full of goodness'!

I'm retired now, but still have my daily horlicks, chocolate light is my favourite, it's a lovely warming drink on a cold morning up here in the North of Scotland.

I'd like to know if I can still get the sweets as they'd be great to keep in your pocket.

I also remember collecting jar labels for an offer in the Eagle comic.

As a student, I stayed at a hostel in South London. The place was run by a stern matronly woman whose attitude to me softened completely when she discovered that I drank Horlicks.

I guess she must have seen it as some symbol of respectability and overlooked my wobbling after I returned from the pub.

Bought from Boots when we were growing up, they never lasted long! Please please bring them back, so delicious!
