Description
This was a very memorable drink that had a soldier imprinted on the bottle. It tasted very similar but much better than a Yoo-Hoo chocolate drink. There supposedly is a new revival of this drink available in some areas.

Chocolate Soldier is indeed available again. And it is utterly disgusting. You can get all the hideous details at the link.

I have GREAT memories of summers in the 60's in Tennessee at my Grandparents, drinking Chocolate Soldiers every day! I'd love to chug one again!
they sell chocolate soldier at dollar general stores
I remember my brother and I walking down to the corner store in the mid 80's to get Chocolate Soldiers!!! i loved those drinks and the cute glass bottle =P
Didn't it also come in a can?
I fondly recall Chocolate Soldier from my boyhood (and young adulthood) days in Kansas during the 1970s and 1980s, as well. I might have seen it in a Dollar General store here in North Carolina. I don't recall. I'm going to go look for it there now, though. Well, not NOW. It's 12:22 a.m.
I used to be able to get this at the West End Grocery in Brunswick Mo. They had the old bottle soda machine and it was a real treat while staying with my granmother back in the 70's and getting to have a bottle to myself. I've p/u a few at dollar general, but haven't seen it lately. What a GREAT taste it had then and still does today.
The one that came in a can was a chocolate drink by Stokeleys. I'm certain, but i can't seem to find anyone who recalls this! It tasted just like Yoo Hoo. The can was the same size as that of Hi-C or Hawaiian Punch. Does anyone remember this? My own mother can't even recall buying it! It had to be in the 60s or 70s.
Yes I think you are right marci....not only do i remember it but wish i had one !!!(south-central ontario region)
I would buy a chocolate soldier after school everyday at our local Ann's Grocery store. I loved the stuff and wish I could find it today. Brings back sooo many memories of my childhood.
the one that came in a can and also little bottle like the soldier, I believe was called Chocolate brownie, my brother and I had both of these growing up in the south 70's & 80's.
The town where I grew up had a Choc Soldier Bottling Facility so it was really popular. My friend Lorna and I would compete to see who could drink the most without taking the bottle away from our lips.
I live in GA. Does anyone know where I can get them today? Thanks
The chocolate soldier was the best. It brings back great memories of visiting my nan and poppa in Southern Oklahoma. I've been looking all over for the drink but haven't had any luck.
I bought a brown molded chocolate soldier bottle this weekend. Is it the new version? None of the "sites" showed anything like it.
