What does “chocolatada” mean in Spanish?
During a supermarket haul, Mila points at chocolate milk cartons and says they are for Martín because he really likes drinking chocolatada. In Argentina, chocolatada is chocolate milk — the sweet, ready-made kind from a carton. She says tomar, not beber: in Argentina, tomar is the usual word for having a drink, so “tomar chocolatada” just means “to drink chocolate milk.”
Spoken line: “Estas de chocolate son para Martín porque a él le gusta mucho tomar chocolatada” — “The chocolate ones are for Martín because he really likes drinking chocolate milk.” A few plain examples: “¿Querés una chocolatada?” — “Do you want a chocolate milk?” “Los chicos toman chocolatada en el desayuno.” — “The kids drink chocolate milk at breakfast.” “Compré chocolatada que estaba en oferta.” — “I bought chocolate milk that was on sale.” Usage notes: “chocolatada” is the normal word for this drink in Argentina (Mila even says “decimos en Argentina”). The everyday verb for drinking it is “tomar,” not “beber.” The carton kind is handy because it is ready and cold, straight from the fridge.
