I don't like milk at all.....but if some chocolate is added into plain milk, then I like to drink it. I like hot milk, but even cold chocolate milk or coffee tastes good. I hope you are first boiling well the milk and then cooling it. I think boiling of milk is very necessary to kill the germs inside. Besides I don't think boiling or heating of milk decreases any nutritions of milk.

well i don't like drinking plain milk as i don't like its smell.but if some other thing like chocolate, strawberry or anyother flavour is added even if coffee, then i love it.be it chilled or hot.but mostly i prefer chilled.it tastes better than when hot.
about heating the milk i would say that raw milk has lot of germs and bacteria in it that is usually not digested by a normal human being unless your digestive system is that active and powerful.so people prefer drinking it by first boiling it to kill those germs.but still it has lots of nutrients enough for a person.

I like cold milk because there is no special flavour of milk.I dislike the flavour.When the milk is heated,the special flavour is released and it will make me hard drink the milk.
And the feel of cold milk is so wonderful.I enjoy in it so much.As to the nutrition,I don't know much about it.Maybe a glass of warm milk will be more nutritive.

I prefer hot milk because I got used to drinking it hot during breakfast since I was a kid. My mom would see to it that we drink hot milk before going to school especially if we don;t get to eat enough. But a friend also taught me to drink cold milk particularly cold evaporated milk. Just chill it, transfer the milk from the can to a glass and drink it cold. Yup got to like the taste too.

I take cold milk normally a milk shake during summers which would change to hot milk during winters with horlicks in it. I personally dont think there is any loss of nutrition when one consumes milk as hot.

I like cold milk, unless it is chocolate milk and then I like it hot. Cold milk is more nutritious that cold milk. See http://en.allexperts.com/q/Nutrition-Dieting-939/Drinking-milk-1.htm
The trick is therefore to just warm it up and drink it just before bedtime so you can get a good night's sleep, not to leave it on the stove to simmer.

Given the choice, I will take cold milk. But here in India, in winters, it is not feasible to have cold milk...in winters we have to make to with hot milk. No idea whether hot milk is less nutritious.
