It's because the drink actually has numerous recipes all over the world. 

For example, Malaysia manufactures its own version of the chocolate malt drink, while Australia has its own recipe to suit the tastes and preferences of its consumers.

Having grown up in Japan and residing in Malaysia for the past three years, Aki explains that he's drunk his fair share of both countries' MILO. However, he's never tried Thailand's version of the chocolate malt. 

Without seeing the packages, he played a guessing game by tasting each version of the drink to see if he could match it with its correct country.

In the video, Aki guesses that the chocolatey version might be from Japan, while the similar ones might be Malaysia and Indonesia, based on the close cultural backgrounds and food.  

Feeling pretty confident about his guesses, Aki reveals the answers at the bottom of the cups. But to his surprise, he discovers that the only answer he got correct was Japan.

To him, Malaysia and Thailand's MILO are almost indistinguishable from each other. They taste the most neutral, with a good balance of chocolate and milk, and can be enjoyed with water.

Meanwhile, Japan's version is more chocolatey and less milky, presumably because the locals like to add milk to their MILO anyway, he adds.

And he explains that Indonesia's version probably goes with condensed milk because it seems to have less chocolate flavour, is somewhat milkier, and is much lighter compared to the others.

His video, which was uploaded on 19 June, has since garnered over 28,100 views. It ends with the YouTuber enjoying every last drop of all four drinks.
