Canadian Forces Moose Milk

1st time I ever had Moose Milk was when I was onboard HMCS Iroquois.  Then I noticed that it's every where I went when I was in the Canadian Forces.

Messes traditionally serve “Moose Milk” at their New Year’s Levees. This alcoholic concoction contains no moose milk whatsoever. The recipes vary, but tend to include eggs, sugar, maple syrup, cream, or ice cream, and some combination of rye whiskey and rum.

Anyways, here’s another Canadian recipe for Moose Milk – metric of course.

Ingredients

1 l rum
1 l Kahlua
1 l vodka
3 l vanilla ice cream (softened)
3 l 1% milk (just to be diet conscious)
chocolate pieces (break up a dark chocolate candy bar or two- this is the added secret moose poop garnish)
nutmeg

Directions

Stir together, leave in some lumps. Sprinkle nutmeg on top.

You may need to play with the proportions to suit your palate. It does make a lot, but that usually doesn’t seem to be a problem, somehow it gets used up. Can leave you with a bit of a hangover, probably all that milk. Or maybe it’s heading out for spicy food after – been there, done that.

Could I scale this down to something that can be made at home?  YES!  The measurements are close approximation for the meteric equivalents.

Moose Milk for one
1.5 ounces (45 ml) Dark Rum
1.5 ounces (45 ml) Kahlua
1.5 ounces (45 ml) Vodka
4 ounces (125 ml) of vanilla soft scoop ice cream
4 ounces (125 ml) of homogenized milk

Put everything in a 14 oz (415 ml) glass.  Stir till mixed.  Enjoy!  Or you can use a Magic Bullet, don't blend for very long, the milk and ice cream are going to froth up. 

Moose Milk for two
3 ounces (90 ml) Dark Rum
3 ounces (90 ml) Kahlua
3 ounces (90 ml) Vodka
8 ounces (250 ml) of vanilla soft scoop ice cream
8 ounces (250 ml) of homogenized milk

Put everything into a small blender.  I'm lucky enough to have the Ninja blender with 2 pitchers.  Blend till smooth.  Server in 2 x 14 oz (415 ml) glasses.  Enjoy!

Moose Milk by the pitcher - six to eight servings
8 ounces (250 ml) Dark Rum
8 ounces (250 ml) Kahlua
8 ounces (250 ml) Vodka
20 ounces (625 ml) of vanilla soft scoop ice cream
20 ounces (625 ml) of homogenized milk

Put everything into a large blender.  Blend till smooth.  Enjoy!

4 x 17 oz (500 ml) glasses - you don't have to recharge your glasses as often
6 x 11 oz (325 ml) glasses
8 x 8 oz (250 ml) glasses


Be ready to make a second pitcher!

MOOSE MILK WARNING – Within anything from a few minutes to an hour after imbibing on Moose Milk you will begin to feel the benefits.

Within a very short period thereafter, you will note various other benefits including a massive increase in confidence, pride, intelligence and magnetism to the opposite sex.
