It doesn’t help that Disney kinda misinterpreted a mild fandom joke for curiosity as you called it. The actors were quite literally drinking milk with blue food coloring while filming that dinner scene, so it just became known as “blue milk” over the years. Nobody wanted to actually try the drink. It was just a behind the scenes fun fact that became a little joke that was later integrated into the canon. I believe in-universe it’s known as Bantha Milk, so Disney didn’t even get that right.

As far as I'm aware, caffeine is only a mild diuretic, so sodas with "typical" amounts of caffeine (so no Jolt, energy drinks, etc.) are still net-hydrating, but obviously not as effective as uncaffeinated beverages. (On the other hand, alcohol is a fairly strong diuretic, and much of a hangover is dehydration.)

@ash_11117 2 месяца назад

I have a story about the green milk. It was April 2022, and on the last day of my vacation, me and my family finally went to Hollywood Studios. Of course, the first place we went was the Star Wars area. We went on most of the main rides, very fun. Around noon, it was getting hot so we went to try out the blue milk. Very strange flavor and consistency, but it was cold and refreshing. A few rides later, we went back and I got the green milk. Once again, it was a strange, indescribable (not in a good way) flavor and texture. I didn’t like it as much as the blue milk but I kept drinking it. As the day passed it melted, and I got really tired of it. I felt nauseous just thinking about it. After I built my droid at the Droid depot, I started feeling really terrible, sick all of a sudden. We all wanted to go in more rides but I felt sick to my stomach, like I could vomit at any moment. My family and I made the long trek back to our hotel, first going on the lift back to Epcot, then on a bus to somewhere else, then on a monorail. It’s really all a blur. Eventually we got back. The last thing I remember is my family trying to decide what we would order for dinner. I can’t remember anything else from the day but my mother recalls me sleeping with my eyes open. I woke up early in the morning next day, fell back asleep, and woke back up three different times until I felt totally fine. Moral of the story: don’t drink the green milk.

I think you're missing some important history. Butterbeer recipes were available online before anyone knew Harry Potter Universal would be built. Butterbeer fudge recipes were available before we knew about the theme park. Recipies for butterbeer cake, cookies were all online. Harry Potter included food and treats as a part of its world from the beginning, so it was easy for people to be curious well before we had a chance to go to a place we could buy a Butterbeer. Similarly, Universal had a starting point to go with for the recipe. A favorite was already identified. They didn't invent the drink as people liked it, they marketed it. Stars Wars has never really included the food in their world, its always been small asides. Harry Potter seeing the snack cart for the 1st time was part of entering the magical world. Of course , we wanted to know and try anything we could. There is no starting point for that curiosity in Star Wars.

@greggv8 2 месяца назад

Right! That's the next thing to be CGI edited into Episode IV.

Then when Leia gets on, add a scene of her grabbing a cold one off the cart after they leave the Death Star.

@WereScrib 2 месяца назад

Star Wars always treated its food exactly like in WW2 propaganda films it has as so much of its lineage. Something no one wants to linger on too long as the film isn't one about food products. I think what made it frustrating for me is realizing emotionally, I want to eat Star Wars food, because it's always looked, sounded, seemed and been in the original trilogy and the old EU, like food. Nothing amazing. But food. Blue Milk? Probably MILK. Probably different from our milk, but I'm sure its fatty and rich and refreshing. The random meals eaten here and there? Look, vegetables, cereals, bread. The issue I think is Star Wars never has people obsess over food. Food is something you eat. It's mildly interesting at most. Luke doesn't enjoy his meal in Empire Strike's back, whatever he's eating in A New Hope is just 'food', clearly. The only person who seems to enjoy his food immensely is Jabba and I don't think Disney wants to serve live frog things. I don't want to eat the rations in Empire Strike's back cos i assume they'll be good. They clearly aren't. I wanna make like, a Star Wars ized D-ration.

Here's my presentation of the milk types, for creative Star Wars' fans - curious to make some (maybe with Princess Leia cinnamon rolls! ~Banthas' Blue Milk: Coconut milk (not water) and butterfly pea powder (until desired blue; a little goes a long way, so be mindful). ***If you can only buy butterfly pea flowers, then steep like tea in the coconut milk ovea low heat, then cool! ~Bantha Milk Smoothie: Make Banthas' blue milk and add bananas and blueberries. On the side, mix some sugar with fresh pineapple juice (avoid canned), so it is very sweet. Mix coconut cream, pineapple-sugar mix, and butterfly pea powder to taste and desired vibrant color (it may be altered from the acidity in the pineapple juice to make a stunning pinkish purple!), then dollop on top ofthe smoothie with a few more blueberries and maybe a candied lemon peel if your fancy like that! So refreshing in the Tatooine desert land! ~Thala-sirens' Green Milk: Sift about a tablespoon of *ceremonial* matcha powder into a small bowl (avoid the more bitter *culinary* matcha if possible). Add only a few ounces of (not excessively) hot water and whisk with a bamboo whisk. You should have a very concentrated matcha to work with. Simply delude with hot coconut water, and if it is too soupy, add coconut cream to make thicker like milk. ~Thala-siren Iced Milk Latte (no expresso): Follow the first three sentences of the Thala-sirens' Green Milk recipe. Add a little banana extract and a little honey (or vanilla syrup, etc). Add *warm* coconut milk to breakdown honey until throughly combined. refrigerate until cool, add a few ice cubes, shake, and serve with whipcream and a drizzle of syrup (caramel, strawberry, get creative!). ***You can buy banana (or strawberry extract) from the bakery aisle alongside peppermint and vanilla extracts! ***Coconut milk substitute is the best for these recipes since some call for coconut cream as well, but any sub-milk should do. I wanted to avoid animal milk so that it can be enjoyed in hot weather longer and additionally that makes more people, like vegans, able to enjoy it too! Sources used for anyone interested!

"Butterbeer" is just a cream soda Slurpee with a shot of butterscotch syrup.

The thing about butter beer is that conceptually it sounds like something delicious you would want to drink but it’s not the be all end all drink of the Harry Potter universe. The problem with blue milk is that it was a throwaway drink made for the first movie that Disney’s marketing team became obsessed with instead of inventing a in universe drink that actually is appealing, blue milk is what it is, it’s milk that is dyed blue, people want a candy sugary drink like something you’d get at Starbucks, blue milk sounds like something a little kid would make for cheap at home and also who wants to drink milk at a theme park in the hot Florida sun?

@joshuaanderson1712 2 месяца назад

They could have thrown in a cantina scene like Dex's Diner/etc, had a character order Brelmanian Fish/whatever with ____ to drink, focused a shot at the conversation from just beyond the food and gone on from there, it was possible but they'd need to work it into the movie a bit with a slower scene.

I also wanna point 2 more things about Butterbeer. Say "Butterbeer" and there are probably 2 things that come to mind. Butterscotch and Buttergin. Butterscotch is a real thing, and it's one of the better tasting kinds of toffee. There's an instant 'taste-association'. Essentially a name association but with your tongue. And you can pretty much taste how you think the drink would taste as soon as it happens. Not only that, but a butterscotch-based alcoholic drink joke also appears in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and its one of the more memorable jokes with just how simple it is compared to the whimsy of everything else. So Butterbeer doesn't just bring to mind some fun drink in a wizard book, but also a place of chocolate waterfalls, golden goose eggs, 5D-TV and the great glass elevator. All im sayin' is that Blue Milk was playing against someone with a stacked deck from the start.

Interesting perspective from an engineering design point of view. I think some other good requirements/goals of both drinks are presentation of drink and distribution stations, immersion into the world (which plays into your first point), and the cup design itself. I like your point on how much latitude the butter beer has in terms of different products. It is hard to copy butter beer when it serves an important roll in the story about contributing to positive emotions. One example might be Lembas from LOTR, but still that’s a survival food, yet described as tasty. It would be interesting to see if there’s a placebo effect with that among well versed LOTR fans whether or not it would make them feel full. Lol

@shellnet411 3 месяца назад

Actually, it's easy to make butter beer at home. If you can find the caramel whipped cream, there was one this past Christmas there was alcoholic that was really good for adults to make butter beer or you can do a siphon with some whipping cream and add caramel syrup, mix it up and whip in a siphon and then add a couple pumps of caramel syrup or butterscotch syrup like you put in coffees into your cream soda, and then add the whip cream on top, but if you can find the one they had for lattes it was like international delight years ago if they would still make that again it is perfect. It is the best it's more of a caramel flavor. That's why they keep messing up the butter beer it's caramel not as much butterscotch just a caramel with a whip cream float and you can use the syrup for that, otherwise it wouldn't mix in as well

@starmangalaxy2001 2 месяца назад

The fact that Butterbeer actually had a recipe before the park is a big boon for it too. Disney for some reason seems to think of the milks as their own attraction for some reason. The blue milk is the only drink in the Cantina that doesn't have it's ingredients listed, and the green milk straight up isn't served outside the stand. Not in Docking Bay 7, the star wars themed food court. And not even in the Cantina, where Blue Milk is served.

@Jspider56 3 месяца назад

Star Wars has always been built around exciting adventures traveling rapidly between locations. Harry Potter was set at a school that while mysterious presented a consistent location with traditions and treats that children would be interested in. It was always goofy to just take relative popularity and assume they'd be equally suited to a similar format. Nobody thinks food with Star Wars and it was a very weird angle for Disney to try to press that. I'm also pretty sure the green milk might be gross in the sequel trilogy because the director hated the idea of a stupid advertisement being in his movie. As much as I don't care for The Last Jedi, I can see where a mandated advertisement in the middle of the movie did not contribute to the film being any better.

Has a subtle flavor that pairs really nicely with literally any baked product? And there are some fantastic dairy free milk uses out there, hot cocoa made with oat milk is thicker and richer than hot cocoa with milk and the slight nuttiness of it goes so well with the chocolate, but rice milk just sounds...thin and watery? And I can't speak for everyone, but fruity flavored milk sounds fucking weird? (Don't come at me strawberry milk fans, I said what I said). It's not surprising to hear that it's chalky, but I just wanted to say that everything about this drink sounds extremely unappealing to the milk drinkers out there too

a milk drink is quite appealing after a day working in a dusty environment, washes away the dust feeling and coats the mouth with a somewhat pleasant liquid for a bit but it has to be actual milk, not some bioengineered plant knock off, and it has to be thick enough, 3.5% fat at least

I feel like I might be like the once person that actually liked Blue Milk, but yet again the time I had it was right before closing as I had an appointment to go make an R-Series Droid at that time so the heat died down a little and I was able to enjoy it and immediately leave back to a cooler area and wasn't effected by its lack of refreshing qualities. Meanwhile for Butterbeer? Tried a taste of it when it was offered to me. And it was nice and refreshing enough that I decided order one when we stopped to have lunch. Meanwhile I don't even think you can order Blue/Green Milk at Docking Bay 7 which is just a baffling choice, it'd probably be the most ideal to have it there, it's a cooler and lower intensity place, and if you didn't like the taste you could just order a more standard drink instead. In fact Disney probably knew the Green Milk wasn't gonna be as popular as even the blue counterpart because you can only get Green at the stand while at least Blue Milk is offered at the Cantina (with a cookie too for some reason). Meanwhile you physically can't escape Butterbeer, it's everywhere. Stands, dining and even shops if I remember right.

I honestly think Galaxy's edge was a bad idea . Not only did they theme the land to the newer movies, which no one really likes, they also used Star Wars instead of introducing a franchise not yet in their parks. What made Harry Potter so successful was that it got millions of visitors who would never even think of visiting a universal park in their gates because it was a franchise not represented any parks. Star Wars has been in the Disney parks since 1987.

The only thing that disappointed me about butterbeer was that the standard served drink at the park is non alcoholic. In universe butterbeer has a low alcohol content so the true way to get full experience is to go to the hog’s head and pay extra to get a shot of alcohol of your choice to add. The only thing I’d change about the experience is to have the hog’s head sell the actual beer and the outdoor stands have the nonalcoholic version.

@achannell362 3 месяца назад

I was just about to add this. The alcohol addition to the blue/green milk is super expensive, but it’s vacay for me when I’m there so I want to have a drink. I think it’s a big miss for Universal not to offer an alcohol addition to the butterbeer at the cart.

eh, I get where you're coming from, but I think it'd be way too confusing for guests to have two identical looking drinks with the same name but one is alcoholic and the other isn't

Why? They have that with Blue/Green Milk at Galaxy's Edge and it's not confusing. They just call it Blue/Green Milk or Blue/Green Milk Cooler.@@Moocow2003

I'm not super into Star Wars but when I first visited Galaxy's Edge in DisneyLand I was intrigued by the blue milk and got one! I thought it would taste creamy and sweet like how rice pudding tastes...nope it was bomb-pop flavored and totally not what i was looking for in a drink. I threw it away a few sips into the drink

@AlexDeLarge1 2 месяца назад

Here's my theory: Blue Milk is clearly a meme. The overwhelming negative response to this product indicates to me that it is like that on purpose, and it is meant to be a kind of masochistic ritual for Star Wars nerds to get when they visit StarWars Land to geek out. Like, haha, cmon gang let's all go to Starwars Land and get the Blue Milk and totally vomit lol!

U know whats crazy disney has amazing drinks examples being "the blood orange slush" for Halloween or "the Mickey Birthday Cake Shake" during mickeys 75th birthday celebration. But they tie it to specific times of the year so it doesnt have a long standing impact.

@jennieepp8263 3 месяца назад

I made a special trip to see Galaxy’s Edge a couple years ago. Since I’m a Star Wars fan I had to try the milk drink. I got both the blue and green and I hated them both. One did taste sweeter, but they both tasted like I was drinking flavored plastic! I couldn’t even finish them. Never again! And your right, there was no line to order one, just walked right up.

@starmangalaxy2001 2 месяца назад

Yeah. The more this keeps being brought up the more I think it was a big L to mostly relegate it to its own stand in the park instead of having it offered in the restaurant and also having both varieties in the Cantina, places where it's relatively cooler (and if you don't like it you're already in a place where you can order something else)

Lefou's Brew was made back in 2012 at Magic Kingdom and that's more like Disney's Butterbeer then the Blue/Green Milk.

@Saltience Месяц назад

Butter beer is evocative of both butter based products and root beer, two things that already sound great. Blue Milk sounds unnatural and possibly spoiled.

@rabbitos 2 месяца назад

11:55 says something about the drink being unique & not something you could get at a grocery store, but butterbeer has been in grocery stores for over a decade under the brand Flying Cauldron. It tastes the same as the cold soda sans the added foam. I grew up drinking it so when I finally had the Official Branded Product, it was an underwhelming ripoff (which the entire park felt like to me but that's another can of worms lol)

@donfisherjr.2404 3 месяца назад

Once again, Disney thought they could buy an existing I.P., throw money at it, slap a logo on hastily retooled gadgets and food, and it would be a money-printing machine for them. It's as though they never learned effective marketing.

@MegaNerdX 3 месяца назад

Don’t know if it’s just me, but the blue milk in the Cantina called the Blue Bantha taste a smidge better and I think it’s because the drink is colder in the Cantina & comes with a Bantha cookie to dunk.

@starmangalaxy2001 2 месяца назад

Noting that and the experience I had with the drink (I actually liked it but I got it when it was dark and not that hot out) I think temperature might have a significant factor on how it tastes, which like yeah that's the case with regular milk, but it's something that Disney seemingly didn't account for. I think there might be a better reception if the drink was offered in Docking Bay 7 since you're there to cool off, and having food to eat would also offset the apparently overwhelming nature of the drink.
