Milk Punch was born in 18th century America as a brunch and morning drink. With both milk and alcohol, it offers a "light yet potent" drink. Its creaminess and touch of spice make it a staple in classic breakfast or brunch cocktails.

“Life should sometimes be as calm as sweet milk, sometimes as bold as bourbon”

Some recipes clarify the milk by straining it, resulting in a light and elegant appearance. It represents the calm but sophisticated side of American bar history.

Bartender Tips

🥄

Grate the muscat fresh - the aroma makes a fresh difference.

🧊

Use plenty of ice - the drink stays balanced and cool.

🫖

Don't shake the milk too much - it should be foam-free but retain a smooth texture.
