- I'm recreating the Blue Milk served at Disney's Star Wars Galaxy's Edge at
home, may the force be with you!
The Blue Milk of Star Wars is of course actually Tatooine Bantha milk and is a stable around the Lars family table where Luke Skywalker grew up. It made its debut in the 1977 film Star Wars ( did you know that "A New Hope" wasn't added to the title until the 1981 theatrical rerelease? Well now you do) and ever since then homemade versions of Blue Milk have been a right of passage for all the geeks who trek down the long dark road to long time ago in a galaxy far far away. Disney of course has opened Star Wars Galaxy's Edge both at Walt Disney World Florida and Disney Land California, and they serve Blue Bantha Milk at both locations. Since Disney owns Star Wars, the theme park milk must now be canon, so the only thing a true nerd can do now is recreate it, anything else belongs in the expanded universe! I managed to get down to Galaxy's Edge over the summer and I spent a lot of time taste testing the blue milk to try to discern it's flavors, and I had a really hard time with it. It wasn't until I found a leaked image online of the ingredients listing on the powder they use to make the stuff that I had a break through. Though the packaging implied that the primary flavor should be Dragon Fruit, my experiments with it yielded nothing that was even remotely close to what they served at Walt Disney World. The ingredients list was instructive in a lot of other ways though, and helped me zero in on the secret ingredient here: Orange Blossom Water. That really did the trick in my opinion. Beyond that it's just a question of how to turn this stuff into a slushie, but you've got several options. I went the liquid nitrogen route because I can, it's fast, and it looks cool. But you could also freeze some of the mix into ice cubes, combine it in a blender with some non-frozen stuff and frappe it up.
Blue Milk
10 oz. or 300 ml. Rice Milk
.75 cup or 150 g Sugar
.5 oz. or 15 g coconut oil
6 drops of Orange Blossom Water
Pinch of Citric Acid (optional)
Pinch of Blue Spirulina
blend to incorporate thoroughly
Freeze to a slushie using your preferred method
Serve

How To Drink plz do a really awesome Irish drink
May the Force be with you, Always
Would you do vodka to booze this up, or maybe use it as a base in like a Blue Eggnog?
you're turning my liver into a force ghost, Greg
So if you added grain alcohol to this would it be considered the love child of Fight Milk and Riot Juice?
That moment you realize you walked right next to one of your favorite UA-camrs at Galaxy’s Edge
That moment when you realize he saw this comment and acknowledged it making it even better by liking it. 🔥👍
I'm gonna be level with you, being lactose intolerant does not stop me from in-taking dairy, it only makes regret it. Almost every time.
Blue and green milk are dairy free
Theres a pill called hmm lactaid i think that will help with milk if you are lactose intolerant
Somethings are worth the discomfort
@@liannburgos3714 Nope it comes from a bantha it's dairy
It's okay. People shouldnt drink milk anyways.
Luke: Han, your son hasn't been behaving in school
Han: Yeah yeah yeah, let me show you a new milk recipe I've been working on
Adam Driver: I'M NOT TOO WIDE DAD!

Please wear safety glasses in the future Greg, we love you and want you healthy and happy.
Safety glasses might have been smart. Gloves and the rest are actually a mistake.
jakisall We want him safe but remember this is the same man who catapulted an unnecessarily large glass mug that was only used for presentation directly onto his big toe resulting in a hospital visit.
Safety may be beyond his expert showmanship at this point.
@@howtodrink *don't forget the steel toes.*
@@howtodrink i actually know a guy who was working in a lab with the army, using liquid N2. They were required to wear gloves. Long story short, some splashed out of the tank and down inside his glove. He doesn't have that hand anymore.
@@JM-jv7ps maybe that's why not to wear gloves, since ordinarily, as Greg said, it would just bounce off his skin, but instead cuzza the glove it had nowhere else to go
*DIY*
“Now take your liquid nitrogen”
Like, 2$ a liter at the welding supply. You just need a dewer flask to store it in.
Just go with an icecream maker. It will cost you 60-80 for one with a freeze bowl and you can make icecream!
@@howtodrink The FDA has issued strong warnings about ""Injuries have occurred from handling or eating products prepared by adding liquid nitrogen immediately before consumption, even after the liquid nitrogen has fully evaporated due to the extremely low temperature of the food."
@@KahlevN "immediately before consumption" being the key words in there. This isn't immediately before consumption. He's talked about it in another video before

Hate to break it to you but real milk comes from those too
The way Greg roasts himself in the captions never fails to amuse me.
It failed to amuse me.
@@skjaldulfr Then it is you who is the failure
So Greg, you’ve brought up being a goth nerd in the 90s into table top and it makes me wonder, did you ever played Vampire the Masquerade? Somehow I feel like it would have been up teenage Greg’s alley. Either way, Vitae, what the game calls blood, seems like perfect fodder for a cocktail interpretation. Maybe something wine based? There’s a sequel to the classic PC RPG Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines coming out soon too if you need something to tie it into.
I played V:TM a ton. The friend who ran it pretty much exclusively ran Sabbat games and the phrase "vitae" was banned at the table lol.
@@howtodrink And here I took you for a Nosferatu kind of guy.
@@howtodrink I look forward to the video after Bloodlines 2 comes out. :p
How To Drink Huh, GMs who only run Sabbat is something you and I have in common then. Is there a story behind the ban or is it just that’s it’s too far into being obnoxiously poncy?
Would love to see a Vitae cocktail! Alternatively, The Blood from Darkest Dungeon's Crimson Curse DLC would be a nice one too!

i just tried it. my results weren't perfect but they were super close. THE ORANGE BLOSSOM WATER IS EVERYTHING.
i would probably cut the sugar down to 0.25 cup, but that's just me. still, THE ORANGE BLOSSOM WATER IS EVERYTHING.
Christopher Standard Time how did you do the coconut oil
the WHAT?
That pigment is called phycocyanin, and it's derived from the cyanobacteria genus Arthrospira, containing Spirulina. The algae itself is one of the closes things to a nutritionally complete food that we can grow (without requiring multiple ingredients). Clever way to dye foods.
That moment when you're starting a Star Wars TTRPG with friends, and we now have a recipe for Blue Milk in the Cantina. Thanks, Cantina man
Wish I could play that, but alas I have no nerd friends to play with me, F.
@@Zerklass honestly same dude
fun fact, the band in the cantina plays a style of music called "jizz"
Ew
Oh dear.
Buy Almond
Well Han Solo did describe the blue milk as “too rich (creamy) and overly sweet”
And Luke Skywalker did describe it as “oily”
And many other sources call it a thick liquid
@The Lexdysic cartographer No, don't do that, I don't want to have this thought in my head. :D
Based
When worked at sci-fi conventions, I used to order a blue Slushie just before closing time and ask it to be poured into a plastic cup I had brought (a genuine Tupperware Sweet Saver, like in the movie)
Findecanor
Thank you I will get myself one of those cups
It’ll be a right of passage as a Star Wars fan
Honestly, I remember the fact they drank the milk from what looked exactly like the type of Tupperware we had rather than it being blue at all.
This is true! It wasn’t blue on set, only in camera. Still- it’s blue milk!
If you kept that Tupperware, then it'll be worth a fair bit to Star Wars collectors!
Have you thought of doing a Firefly cocktail like mudder's milk?
Or anything that Londo drinks in Babylon 5?
Here Greg! Right here!
Mudder's milk is a great idea
Yeah do mudders milk
that would be awesome, I love Firefly :)
Be so shiny
Editor, you're an absolute gift and treasure of a human being. Thank you for helping to brighten my day
Never change, Greg. Your movie commentary nerdiness adds so much enjoyment to your creativity in your creations
I’m pretty sure that you just have to milk a Bantha. Imagine being this guy and making milk from scratch.
How to make milk from scratch: get your wife pregnant.
B. K. Hutterer don’t got a wife bro 😔
I just bought that same orange blossom water from amazon, wish I could’ve used your affiliate link, but I’m glad you are using the same brand. I had to get a dripper, I found out quickly it goes from nice orange hint to orange potpourri.
Hey Greg, just wanted to say thanks for all the great content! We celebrated my wife's birthday this past weekend and did a makeshift home whiskey tasting...thing (she loves whiskey) where everyone brought a different type of whiskey to the party to taste. I rewatched several of your videos for inspiration on cocktails (especially the old fashioned ones) and made several different types of cocktails and it was a huge hit. Made my own demerara syrup for the first time and even did the whole 'light a match and use the orange zest to smoke the drink' maneuver. It made for a great time and I just wanted to say keep up the great work!
This is important for life. Thank you, Greg.
Omg ever since I’ve seen that drink in the movie, I’ve wanted to see a real life version so I can drink it myself
For a runnier (non-chilled) version like the film:
1-1/2 cups whole milk
1 tablespoon sugar
½ teaspoon vanilla
blue food gel dye
and you can do whatever you want with this

That mysterious taste? Maalox. It was the flavor of liquid Maalox.
Hey, I asked for this some months ago! Thanks, Greg!
Other youtubers, take note. The man pays attention and (eventually) responds to his fans! Awesome.
I come back to this episode time and time again almost exclusively because the face Greg makes in the thumbnail is incredible
You do seem like a guy who'd tend bar at a cantina on the edge of the galaxy, secretly smuggling illegal booze with a freighter.
Love that you took a picture of the mix. It's so hard to re-create Disney recipes because they use mixes left right and center. Can only guess.
I just had some of this at Galaxy’s Edge today and you’re definitely spot on with how you made it!
Just to make 800 comments.
You're awesome dude. Keep doing what you're doing because you're awesome and your drinks are awesome. Everything is awesome. Keep the amazing good work!
This episode should be "The Editor Strikes Back"
“What, no alcohol? Next time remember the alcohol”
I said the same thing. I was like, wait, what do I add?
@@DjOsseusChicago Blue Agave Tequila of course lol.
Disappointed. No alcohol.
Seriously! Where’s the booze😋
I at least expected a second batch where he adds liquor. Very disappointed.
The edit was absolutely nailed in this one ♥️
This is the drink you’re looking for, also the one I’ve been waiting for
Ah yes. Who can forget the iconic "Snu Snorfla"
We tried this out this past weekend (minus the liquid nitrogen...we put it in our ice cream maker instead) and it was VERY sugary. Had the familiar flavors of Blue Milk from the parks, but there was so much sugar it was hard to take more than a couple of sips. Wondering where we went wrong lol
We cut down the sugar from the recipe, about only 3/4, and it was still too sweet. I used the orange blossom water and it was tasty and unidentifiable like the park. I wonder if the pineapple would add anything.
150 grams is only 2/3 of a cup but the .75 is wrong and makes it seem like 3/4 of a cup.
did you have unsweeteed rice milk?
I love your editor. They make these videos all the more enjoyable.
Man, I hang out with you more than anybody! Your videos keep going in the background, and I’m like damn he’s been here the whole time!
I appreciate how hard it is to make recreations of drinks, ewspecially from memory, but personally this doesn’t taste like the blue milk to me. I followed every step step by step and mine came out sickly sweet. I tried watering it down with ice and it made it barely drinkable, but the taste still seems quite off. I also had a problem with the coconut oil not really incorporating into the drink, but that could be completely on me. I am going to try it one more time, but will half the sugar and use only 3 drops of orange blossom, but I was so sad when it didn’t work out. Thank you for the video though,as I said earlier, it definitely is hard to recreate these drinks, especially when you don’t have easy access to them.
I just made it as well and my coconut oil did not incorporate. I will try this one more time and maybe warm everything up beforehand. I even put it in the blender, but it still is just chunky coconut oil. And it tastes nothing like the one in the park :( I'm very saddened by it
"Ahrange blossom water" sounds like an Eastern PA/Baltimore accent
New York, if I'm not mistaken
Chase Housley i thought it was jersey
I fell asleep and work up to this channel, you are amazing, this channel is amazing, you all are amazing
I love you man. Since galaxy’s edge has been open I have been dying for someone to do and more importantly say the the things that you are saying in your copy cat blue milk recipe.
I didn’t want a “blue milk recipe “ I wanted THE blue milk recipe that Disney has made OR someone with skill and knowledge to make something as close as possible to it.
The fact that you’ve had it multiple times and tried to identify it and have actually found an ingredients list which you are trying your best to replicate is exactly what I wanted to see and hear form someone providing a blue milk recipe.
All the other BlueTubers are just making a their version.
Can’t wait to try this. Thank you.
You should do the "Water of Life" from the "Dune" series for the 2020 remake. Don't be afraid. Fear is the mind killer!
I may dislike the new Star Wars movies, but I love HTD and was thinking this might come up. We need some Elder Scrolls stuff, riften had some mixed drinks you could do, or you could do some skooma shooters. I can't wait to see them
Elder scrolls drinks!
I'd like to see his take on a Blackbriar Premium mead. Or maybe an Emberbrand spiced wine.
@@NachoBran_CandyCabbage Blackbriar Premium sounds like a brewing project. Honey from bees feed on blackberry flowers and then brewed with blackberries or something like that. Would actually be cool to see Greg do something like that, Drink Projects with HTD.
Oh yeah you know whats coming next
How to drink is better than tlj
@@pedroemo5477 What do you mean by that, I'm assuming (rather safely here) that we'll see a TES drink in the future. Or was that comment about you know what's coming next towards something else
It makes my nerdy heart giddy that you wore hans shirt for this episode. I love you.😊
The editing in this episode is top freaking notch
Loved the video and the fact that you are “cosplaying” Han Solo
"Oh look, it's literally Satan" - C3P0, re: the Devaronian (in Auralnauts Star Wars dub anyway)
An elegant pour. For a more civilised drink.
Blue milk?! Oh hell yes! I've been looking forward to this.
Gaz twice the pride, double the fall
Now this, this, is a beverage
That moment when you get more enjoyment from a dude making blue milk in his garage than the last few Star Wars movies
That looks so great!!!! Thank you. Happy Holidays bud :)
WOOOO awesome episode man. Keep em coming. Good job to everyone. :)
"I dont know the name of every character in the films."
Comic/lore and expanded universe fans, "Ha, you thought you could challenge me."
The “green milk” taste like Juicy Fruit gum. Its kinda weird
No they just released the pic on that ingredients list too, it's called mandarin orange blossom green dry mix, if you look that up it should bring up an article about it. That could make sense why it seems like juicyfruit
Trying your butter beer for Christmas. So excited!!
Definitely a concoction that calls for eye protection! So cool! ...literally.
I always imagined it to taste like a blue coconut cream slush from Sonic.
What job did you have on Smugglers Run/the Millennium Falcon? I was one of the engineers!
Omg thanks so much for making this!
The names got me😆
I'm a simple man: I see Greg dressed as Han Solo I click and like!!
I've always wanted to make this milk, since Aunt Maru served it to Luke and Aunt Owen in A New Hope. Epic!
This was enjoyable. Good job.
Perks of being a Floridian: Disney is in your backyard.
"satan and the wolfman are there"
WAIT, HAVE YOU ACTUALLY SEEN THE AURALNAUTS PARODY!?
Shout out to your editor for adding the names. Great work!!
Came here to say I made this drink and tweaked it JUST right to be 100% spot on. 1st thing, MELT the oil first. This helps it incorporate better. 2nd let these liquids "marinade" together in the fridge after blending REALLLLLLY well. Seriously I did this side by side with just doing everything immediately and the difference in flavor profile is crazy. 3rd and SUPER important, go lighter on the citric acid, Like the lightest of pinch realllllly does make it less "soured" and helps incorporate the flavors better without overpowering them. Still, this is definitely blue milk to a T!
Hey, that's real neat, thanks greg. Coincidentally I'm going to be playing some ol' battlefront, I'd suggest you try it some time, if you like your star wars.
This "BLUE" my expectations out of the water!
Dad joke #56
Hello There! LOL! THAT WAS AWESOME!! I definitely have to make this! And It’s the perfect time I just bought my wife a kitchen Aid mixer & we have an emulsion blender! You definitely have the high ground and up there you have made a masterpiece. Can’t wait to recreate this. Now I just have to get my hands on some Liquid Nitro 🤔
I work at the Milk Stand in Galaxy's Edge at Walt Disney World! This video was great and I love your Blue Milk! All you need is a Bubo Wambo Souvenir Sipper to complete the drink!
What booze would you recommend adding to make this an adult beverage?
Takeshi7 No expert but rum sounds pretty good
I'd probably say Malibu coconut rum or kahlua if you like coffee liqueur. For something strong I'd say vanilla vodka.
Takeshi7 yeah I’d be wanting to turn this into a boozy blue heaven shake - vanilla vodka all the way.
Matthew G but what if the rums gone?
Maybe Grand Marnier to replace the orange drops?
Dragon fruit tastes pretty much like nothing for those of you who are curious, no distinct flavor just a slight sweetness is a unique texture that’s somewhere near an overripe apple and a pear with tiny seeds in it. Typically they just use the name and the image the fruit for marketing so he doesn’t really need the dragon fruit in there.
Greg this is incredible. My Rise of Skywalker experience will now be complete.
The tasting notes are always funny
POINT OF ORDER:
The second ride opened last week.
I totally recognize that y'all probably filmed this before it was open, so legit, but I HAD TO OKAY?!
Not open at Disneyland yet. January 17th.
So obviously you do a lot of drinks from/inspired by specific fictional universes.
Have you considered drinks that don't come from a specific fictional universe but are kind of common to/inspired by a certain genre or something like that?
Like generic high-fantasy health-/stamina-/magic-potion drinks?
Yes, ( I considered a "Space Cowboy" episode where I did drinks from Bebop + Firefly + and some 3rd thing) but it's probably not a great idea to do so. The reasoning behind this might sound crass but it's just reality, basically for the most part I find, that if people don't instantly recognize the thing in the thumbnail and ALREADY have a high degree of interest in that thing, they don't click it. At least not in the volume that I need them to for my content to not simply get absolutely buried in the sea of videos on UA-cam. It takes me a lot of work (and money) to make this show, and it doesn't make sense to make content that I know basically no one will wind up seeing.
Do it how to drink
@@howtodrink Dang. I had ideas about how I would make those generic potion drinks and was curious to see how you would make them.
In that case, may I suggest Veritaserum from Harry Potter? I imagine you'd make something high-alcohol-content and then pour out shots of it, since it's a super-potent truth potion.
I'll just say that I actually watch a lot of your videos because the drink looks good whether I know the media you referenced or not, I don't have to be familiar with where the drink came from, I just click because it's intriguing, your videos are very high quality and fun to watch.
These are the drinks I'm looking for.
This was awesome!!!!
I'm allergic to coconut. Got any substitutions for coconut oil that you think will work well?
Palm oil?
He mentioned that the coconut was mostly for texture, you could probably do without it entirely. I'd be surprised if you got the same results with most other oils, but common replacements for coconut oil would be grapeseed, sunflower, or palm oil. Palm oil is especially similar, but pretty unhealthy. Since the amount is so small I doubt it would be an issue one way or another.

There’s no alcohol in this. Are you trying to poison me?
Be sure to work in a well ventilated area when liquid nitrogen is involved. The visible condensation is heavier than air and will creep along the counter but the gas released is almost exactly the density of air and it can fill the available space, reducing the oxygen needed to breathe. I wouldn't say don't risk it, but I would say to put a window fan in the window set on intake and run it on high to get the most outside air into your workspace that you possibly can.
Blue Milk DIY:
Step 1: Pour MIlk
Step 2: Add blue food coloring
Fin
Rice milk- didn't spill a drop.
Blue spidadamanaba- Kobe bryant'ed every single grain.
Liquid nitrogen- its supposed to look like that.
Thousands of dollars of hard to find liquor- clean up on aisle everywhere.
*EDIT* Fun fact of the day: did you know the words aisle and island are no way the same? "aisle" comes from a old Latin word that means "wing", and "island" comes from a combination of 2 old English words literally meaning "watery land".
The more you know. 🌈🌠
This looks good! For Holidays imma try butterbeer. Imma use your show as my reference
I was waiting and waiting for at least a recommendation of a liquor to blend in with it... I can appreciate the N/A concept too
