Whiskey can be drunk with (almost) anything. Water, soda, coffee, tea… and even with a glass of milk.

If you like creamy cocktails, you’ve come to the right place. We tell you how to combine milk with whiskey. Plus some delicious milk cocktail recipes for beginners.

CAN YOU MIX WHISKEY AND MILK?

The idea of mixing milk and whiskey may seem unappealing at first, but this classic duo dates back centuries and is one of the oldest written cocktail recipes.

The combination of sweet and smooth whiskey with milk translates into a comforting and creamy drink that can be enjoyed at any time of the day. Ballantine’s Scotch whisky has a deep, balanced flavour with velvety flavours of vanilla, chocolate, apple and a hint of spice. Each of these notes pairs perfectly with the sweet and slightly salty taste of milk.

Don’t like milk? No problem. Swap out cow’s milk for your favorite lactose-free alternative: try the nutty flavor of coconut or almond milk or the earthier flavor of oat milk.

WHISKEY AND MILK COCKTAIL RECIPES

Whiskey and milk are the perfect base for making a sweet or spicy cocktail. The ingredients you can add to your drink are countless, from chocolate to honey, and from vanilla to nutmeg. Here are 5 recipes for whiskey with milk:

1. Milkshake Whiskey

If you’re craving something outrageously sweet and creamy, then the Milkshake Whiskey is going to blow your mind. This excellent drink is basically a dessert in a cocktail, made with all the goodness of dairy.

The addition of ice cream to whiskey and milk makes this adults-only smoothie 1000 times creamier. And that’s not counting the toppings. Cream, chocolate chips, cookies, marshmallows, donuts… While you’re at it, put a topping on it.

2. Milk Punch

The Milk Punch is the whiskey and milk drink par excellence. The simple blend of milk, sugar syrup and Ballantine’s 12 Year Old whiskey allows you to create a cocktail that is really silky and just as fun to sip at brunch as it is during the holidays.

It’s as simple as shaking the ingredients in a shaker, straining and serving. The decoration is up to you. Traditionally, a little nutmeg is grated to give it a spicier touch. But you can do it your way. Try cinnamon, brown sugar, or cream for extra creaminess.

3. Chocolate Whiskey Milk

Who doesn’t love a drink before bed? We think Chocolate Whiskey Milk is the ultimate comforter. Apply the perfect ratio and top with toasted marshmallows for a touch of treat.

4. Hot Chocolate Whiskey
