Milk is an item in the game Minecraft that can be obtained from Cows or Mooshrooms, a Cow counterpart in the mushroom biome. Milk is very useful in the game because it removes all potion effects on the player. Aside from that, it also removes effects such as poison, hunger, and wither. Obtaining milk in this game is very easy; all you need is a bucket.

      Tips

      • Unlike the other liquids in the game, like water and lava, milk is not a fluid block, which means you can’t use it for building.
