In the world there is a formula that affectsa combination of its ingredients. Here, on a superficial glance, vodka and milk are completely incompatible products, the simultaneous use of which may even entail digestive problems. But in practice, everything is different. Vodka with milk is otherwise useful, and this is confirmed by medical statistics. There are several excellent recipes milkshakes with vodka, it is used for the preparation of folk remedies for cough and bronchitis. And vodka from sour milk - Arak - is mentioned even in the ancient epos of the eastern nomads.
Wash down with milk
It is a mistake to assume that vodka with milk causes indigestion: any diarrhea and poisoning. But in fact, the negative consequences are manifested only in two versions:
- with personal intolerance to the combination,
- when you drink with little white sour milk.
А вот запивать горилку свежим молочком можно, и в in a sense, it is even beneficial because it reduces the load on the liver and other organs. Milk binds harmful impurities, which are contained, for example, in moonshine, and these toxins do not go into the bloodstream, but are directly excreted into the intestine. As a result: a person becomes faster sober, and in the morning there is a better state of health than people who washed down little white juice, cola, lemonade. And the hangover is not so sharp and leaves faster. Not without reason, some manufacturers of forty-degree beverage practice additional cleaning of raw materials in this way (a vivid domestic example is Mercury Milk vodka).
Drink before drinking
А еще умельцы из народа советуют употребить inside a little milk just before drinking strong high-angle drinks, so that you get less drunk. In their opinion, it envelops the wall of the stomach with a thin film, and ethyl may not so soon be absorbed into human blood (as a result, it drinks and does not get drunk). But the problem is that this rapid method works only partially, and even then with milk of the highest fat content, which indeed has sufficiently enveloping properties. Apply for this purpose store skim - a waste of time! It is better then to eat the butter before drinking - it will be many times more efficient.
Arak - vodka recipe for milk
This is one of the drinks having an ancient history.It is based on the sour distillation method (airan, koumiss, kefir - those products in which not only sour milk, but also alcohol fermentation takes place). Traditionally, milk in the kitchens of the peoples of the East (and the West too) is rarely consumed fresh: without pasteurization in the absence of refrigerators, it quickly sours, and only children usually drink fresh milk. Basically, it was fermented in an appropriate pot, either clay or wooden. After the acid was processed by various methods, depending on what products needed to be obtained at the output: cheese or sour cream, butter or sour milk, cottage cheese or dairy drink. From the latter, with further processing, alcohol was obtained.
Cooking araki
To make a drink from whichvodka was distilled, a special ferment was necessarily added to sour milk. When stirring airan (or other popular drink) from it begins to stand out, emit characteristic noises, carbonic acid, and the liquid begins to foam and slightly rise - the raw material is ready for distillation. To remove excess acid, airan is strongly heated. And the distillation itself is carried out in a distillation apparatus, which consists of a boiler, pipes and a cooler. After the 1st distillation, Arak has a fortress of only 8%. To achieve an increase in degree distilled repeatedly. As a result, Arak - vodka with milk - can reach a fortress of up to 30% or more! It should be noted that the manufacture of "milk" - a time-consuming process. Out of a dozen buckets of sour, only 1 vodka bucket will come out. Therefore, the real Arak today is a rare, expensive product.
Cocktails
Это прелестное сочетание применяется еще и в cocktails. Vodka with milk is called “White Russian”, where the ingredients are both components plus coffee. The recipe for this cocktail, by the way, is not from Russia. "White Russian" was named by the Whites, who fled to the West during and after the Civil War. Here they were christened white russians. In the manual for the American bartender, one of the versions of the cocktail was published as early as 1930. And thanks to the optimal fortress with pleasant milky notes, it becomes a hit of the 80s discos in the West. Ease of preparation of the drink allows you to make a cocktail "Vodka with milk" with his own hands at home.
Making a cocktail
Нужно взять 2 части водки, 1 часть ликера coffee (in a more budget version is replaced by 2 tablespoons of instant coffee, diluted in a small amount of water), 1 part cream (replaced with fat milk), ice cubes or crushed.
Fill a 160-ml glass with ice. Add liqueur and milk with vodka, stir with a spoon for cocktails. Served with a straw. As an option - instead of milk, you can use natural condensed milk.
Milk Refined Vodka
This method of purification of homemade vodka (moonshine) is the oldest and relatively harmless. How to carry out the procedure at home? There are 2 cleaning options - with and without ferrying.
Берем стакан пастеризованного молока невысокой fat content and mix it with a moonshine bucket. Its strength must be above 50 degrees, otherwise the squirrels do not fold. Immediately after the products are connected down, the jars drop to a whitish color. These are toxic impurities that enter our body along with unpurified alcohol. Now it remains to strain the obtained stratified liquid through a carbon filter - and you can use it without the risk of getting the hardest hangover in the morning.
