Well, my son loves it and doesn't care at this moment if they can smell it or not.

Can deer smell hot chocolate?

Yes, they can also hear my son slurp it and ask for more, but we cherish the time and rely a bit more on luck over skill.
*edit- Dads- this is a dramatization. Many, many hunts ended early, or striking out went into making one lucky evening sit. Massive amounts of patience, and a totally different expectations were the new hunting skills I had to work to learn. Just enjoy the time and the opportunities to make memories and teach your kids and hopefully some friends about the fun and wonders in the woods.Last edited by Txtourist; 12-08-2019, 08:09 AM.

Let him drink the hot chocolate, the hunts will always be there but the hot chocolate times will be just a memory before you know it.
With my kids I worried about these smal things. One of my grandsons that hunts with me now on occasion, we make a party out of junk food and hot chocolate. His mother thinks otherwise since she is a health nut.

Since the milk in hot chocolate came from a live cow does it still carry pheramones? That's the question for you guys out there because it's way above my pay grade.
My guess would be only if you milked the cow on the way to the stand!
