A bucket of milk is an item obtained from Cows and Mooshrooms by right-clicking on them with an empty bucket. Milk is only ever encountered in a bucket, nowhere else, and it cannot be placed down on the ground like water or lava; despite milk being a liquid, it is not a fluid block in Minecraft. Its main use is curing poison and potion effects. It is also an ingredient in cake.

[edit] Usage
You can milk a cow infinitely as long as you have enough buckets. Right clicking with a full bucket of milk will start the drinking animation. It doesn't fill up the hunger bar, but will immediately cure the Player of any status changes or cancel the effect of poison, Wither, and other potion effects.
Since it cures poison, an ideal source of food would be rotten flesh followed by a bucket of milk, which will restore hunger and then cancel out the poison, respectively. This would only require a cow and an open space for zombies to spawn on at night.
Because of its ability to cure status effects, it is a good idea to take it into an Abandoned Mine Shaft for curing the poison from Cave Spiders.

[edit] History
| Alpha | ||
|---|---|---|
| 1.0.8 | Milk was first introduced, but it had no purpose, only obtainable through inventory editing. | |
| 1.0.11 | Milk can now be obtained by right-clicking a cow with a bucket. | |
| Beta | ||
| 1.2 | It was incorporated into the crafting recipe for cake, but it still was not edible. | |
| 1.2_01 | Squid could now be milked by right-clicking on their mouth if part of their body was exposed to air or if they were not touching another block. An easy way to accomplish this was to pull a squid with a fishing rod away from other blocks and then milk it. | |
| 1.4 | Removed squid milking. | |
| 1.8 | Was made edible. | |
| 1.9pre2 | According to a tweet by Jeb on September 30th 2011, milk was made a cure for all potion effects.[1] | |
[edit] Trivia
- The milk bucket is one of the few items that doesn't stack, along with all the tools (pickaxe, shovel etc.), doors and potions, however, it does stack in the Pocket Edition.
- In Pocket Edition, milking a cow with a stack of empty buckets fills all buckets in that stack at once. This is most likely a bug.
- If you drink milk while having nausea, the nether portal animation will show.
