Do you consider yourself a cocktail connoisseur? Maybe even a trendsetter? Supporting local businesses is all the rage, so this spring, experiment by including Upstate Farm’s finest dairy product, Intense Milk, in your concoctions. 

Fun Cheerios

  • 1/2 cup of vanilla Intense Milk 
  • 1/2 can of beer of your choice (a Genesee variety is preferable)
  • 1 cup of  Cheerios

In these divided times, bring everyone together with the two drinks America loves the most: milk and beer. And what’s more American than a good ol’ bowl of Cheerios cereal? You may have heard of beerios (exactly what it sounds like) if you’ve spent some time socializing with a certain few CT members, but let’s bring back what makes a bowl of cereal so great by adding in some of the cream and fat from the Intense Milk. Best consumed with a spoon alongside the occasional sip. 

Intense Chocolate Russian

  • 1/2 cup of chocolate Intense Milk
  • 1 fluid ounce of coffee flavored liqueur
  • 1 fluid ounce of vodka
  • 1 cup of ice

Mix up the classic White Russian by swapping out the cream or whole milk with a fun chocolate flavored Intense Milk. It symbolizes all the mud and slush we get up here in the spring.

Mint Chip Grasshopper

  • 1 fluid ounce of mint chip Intense Milk
  • 3/4 fluid ounce of creme de menthe
  • 3/4 fluid ounce of white creme de cacao
  • 1 cup of ice

Look no further for the best dessert cocktail! The mint chip flavored Intense Milk perfectly complements the mint and chocolate flavors in the two liqueurs and replaces the cream that is typically added. And don’t worry – mint chip Intense Milk is bright green so it doesn’t stray too far from a true grasshopper.
