Lowest kilojoules: drinking chocolate, ranked
The drinking chocolate with the fewest kilojoules on Australian shelves is Avalanche Hot Chocolate 10 pack at 68 kJ per 100 g dry (16 Cal), verified against the pack label.
Dry powders cluster near 1,600 kJ per 100 g because sugar is sugar; the reduced-sugar lines dip meaningfully. The milk underneath is the bigger decision, but the powder is the one you choose here.
