Have you ever tried milk punch? It's not the creamy beverage you might be picturing. Milk clarified cocktails use curdled milk to trap tannins and other polyphenols, pigments, and some flavor compounds to result in a mellow, refined drink rich in whey protein-rich water.

Can you make cheese with the curds left over from making Milk Punch?

@Lvl15_Gazebo 4 года назад

For those wondering, I made a batch. The milk punch tastes amazing. The leftover curds have a great wine taste, but a lot of bitter (which I'm kind of sensitive too). I'm not sure how one would fix that bitterness, but otherwise it could be a nice winey ricotta 🤷🏻‍♂️

@unintentionallydramatic 4 года назад

@@ncooty You're welcome. Clarified Milk Punch is honestly _the_ make-ahead drink. It clocks in at around the cost of mid-tier (or less; it can do a lot to even rather low quality spirits) wine while being significantly more agreeable to a wider range of taste buds and always carrying a certain level of sophisticated novelty and individual character.

@jonathangoldsmith7832 4 года назад

Is this why my half and half curdled upon impact when making a pan sauce with wine last night?

@jonjohns8145 4 года назад

probably .. H&H doesn't have enough fat (like straight cream does) to prevent those milk proteins from curdling. Fat (as in cream) and Starch (like in pudding or a roux) act to prevent milk proteins from getting entangled (together to cause curdling. It could also happen that your carton of H&H was too old and had already become infected with bacteria that would eventually curdle it. You just happened to have caught it before it became obvious and when you introduced the wine, it curdled on you.

@jonathangoldsmith7832 4 года назад

Jon Johns maybe if I added more half and half, there would have been enough fat to bring it together? I should do some experimenting.

@jonjohns8145 4 года назад

@@jonathangoldsmith7832 No, instead, try whisking in a couple of pads of cold butter into the sauce and wait until they melt before adding the H&H .. you effectively would be making cream again. Or you can use Cream instead if you have it.

@you238 2 года назад

Wondering why if cocktail-to-cold-milk is better, many of the recipes in the Aviary cocktail books want hot-milk-to-cocktail. Is one just faster? The books also recommend "overnight, or preferably two days for a more clarified final result".

Amazing- I just saw this video and I really want to make Mary's Citrus recipe, but the event is tomorrow!

Fantastic video, as per always! I was wondering whether any lactose remains in the milk punch after straining. Presumably the whey does, and people with whey intolerance can't drink this, but can people with a lactose intolerance? (And if not, is it similar to drinking milk, or does it contain less lactose than non-strained milk?
