This video was made before I got Covid (back when I could smell and taste). My smell and taste are getting better every day and I'm so GRATEFUL. ✨

This sounds nice! I used to make an Italian liqueur called rosolio that contained lemon juice and zest, sugar, milk and everclear. It had that same smooth silky texture. Like drinking an alcoholic lemon meringue pie.

I’ve heard of this technique being called “milk washing” and it’s used to make the alcohol taste more smooth :) So cool!

I think you could make some candied peel with that brandy-infused orange and lime peel!

My family did this a few years ago. We loved it and had fun but the straining was soooo slow and we had way more than we could ever drink. But it's fun to watch someone else do it!

"The Naked Lemon" sounds like the perfect name for a cocktail bar, which given this drink is kind of cocktail-y, it'd probably do well there... :P

I’ve made clarified milk punch a bunch of times and it is so tasty. Also! It keeps for quite a while, so it makes great gifts!🎉.

I saw this at your Instagram stories and I was so curious to see how it's made. I love your videos, full of creativity

Anyone else terrified to watch this

I LOVE when you talk nerdy to us Emmy! 😍🤓 you are so articulate and passionate about your recipes but you still have a warming simplicity about you that i can't get enough of. You're so nurturing and fun I'm sure you're an amazing mom and wife! Don't stop doing what you do lovely and that's making everyone around you happy with your bright energy❤

Wow! Fascinating... I am super curious if you could make something with the curds that are filtered out from the liquid? I imagine they are still edible, but maybe they have a funky texture or taste. Very interesting.

Years ago, a couple of beverage companies in Japan made what they called "clear latte" and I'm very curious to know how they were made and what they tasted like.

This is fascinating! I wonder if this would work without the brandy? Because I enjoy complex, unusual flavors and I don't drink, I'm exploring botanical concoctions. Not virgin copies or zero-alcohol versions of spirits, but things that are entirely their own experience. I'd LOVE it if you did an episode about this! ❤

I actually just made some for Christmas! It’s a fascinating process and absolutely delicious!

I could watch and listen to Emmy grill a skunk and listen intensely to every word she said. Her voice is so calming I often fall asleep to her at night.

I LOVE how excited you get! Also, so happy you’re feeling better/senses coming back.

Glad to see that your senses of taste and smell have returned. I love these quirky recipes.

How interesting! There is a very similar beverage in the Azores called "licor de leite" (Portuguese for milk liqueur) but it includes chocolate and stronger alcohol, plus it should infuse for about two weeks before filtration. At least that's the way we used to do it in our family. Your version is much simpler, probably not as sweet. Thank you for this recipe!

Emmy’s videos are always so comforting, like a warm hug from a friend 😊

If anyone was going to ever show us how to make clear milk it could only be Emmy. Thank you.

we made one with black tea, port and spiced whiskey and lemon and it changes the flavour so incredibly

im not a big drinker but i think after step two, straining the zest out i would have stopped there and just had the brandy. im honestly thinking you made southern comfort

Loving this emmy. I was so excited to tell you about making maple syrup from potatoes which I saw in a cowboy cookbook, then saw you already tried it ❤❤❤

This is very interesting. You have actually made cheese as a side product. I would be very interested to have you taste it.

Hi Emmy! So happy you are feeling better. Love watching your videos, learn something new every time. Take care!

I absolutely love watching your videos Emmy. You're such a natural at this. Keep it up ☺️

I feel you Emmy, I’m still waiting for my taste and smell to return. It’s been I months and it’s makes the desire to cook (which I love) and explore new recipes a challenge. My family has been doing my taste testing during this time but I’m ready to enjoy this for myself again very soon.

This is so cool! I homeschool my children and am so grateful for your love of science. ♥️. Thanks Emmy!

When you get better you should try making a natural soda with pine needles

It sounds fantastic! I've had something I forget the name of that was almost clarified fermented milk, but, the clear punch is something entirely different. It does sound like it would make excellent gifts.

I usually make limoncello but I'm going to this make citrus infused brandy to gift my family for Memorial day. It sounds like it would make a beautiful spiked lemonade, you could add cinnamon & make a beautiful holiday drink

Happy New year 🎉 Emmy and Family. Hopefully we will see more Tee and Wee in 2023. 🙂

Yes, yes, clear milk… all very exciting. But did anyone else notice how Emmy just casually mentions her fork-juicer hack? Can’t wait to test that out in the kitchen!

this is the scariest concoction ive seen, emmy. you’re brave!!

Save the peels and candy them! With that brandy soaked in, I'm sure they'd be hella delicious.

I love milk punch. I used to go to an awesome brunch spot in BK that would have this. I can’t wait to watch this.

Theres even recipes to make vodka from milk. It's actually pretty old method in fact. Mongolian nomad's still make vodka from horse milk occasionally.

This is so interesting! I wonder if all the lactose went out with the curds or stayed with the whey? With my luck they're in the drink. I hope you're feeling better Emmy!

This is so neat and easy. Can't wait to try this myself. Thank you for all the great videos!

I need a Brotchen recipe I can recreate. I hope ur senses are coming back. Thank you for your hard work and the amazing way u interpret the taste of food to the audience.

A coworker of mine brought milk punch to our friendsgiving (we’re all bartenders) and he made his with gin instead and I believe cranberry juice. It was amazing! so smooth but also very sneaky lol

I love your excitement Mrs.Emmymade, I enjoyed watching you from the start.

Personally if somebody said “milk punch” I’d think to just make a huge bowl of White Russian and add a bottle of Baileys to it for good measure. (White Russian for anybody who doesn’t know is a drink of 1:1:4 Vodka: Tia Maria Coffee Liqeur: Milk as we tend to make it in my family)

This isn't something I would try but watching it actually work was pretty cool!

Glad to see you have your sense of taste and smell back. Love this recipe.

Happy New Year!!!

That is so cool! I would not have thought it possible. Thanks for experimenting and sharing this. Hope you are feeling better!

Heya Emmy!! I hope you’re feeling better!!

In the UK the milk is generally the same full fat, semi skimmed, and skimmed. Although I think some dairys the milk tastes diffrent and of course the regulations may differ in the UK compared to the US. However I think the containers are diffrent I've only seen in store shelves upto a max of 3liters of milk sold and all the milk aternitives are upto 1liter only and twice the price at times. Things like chocolate milk are 500ml-1liter but I don't know the fat contents.

Hi Emmy. So glad you did this video before you got COVID. I just can not believe that you could make clear milk punch. God Bless you and hope you feel better soon. Mari'a. 👍👍👍👍🤗🤗🤗🤗💃💃💃💃🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

My father in law loves to try alcohol and cocktails, thank you for the Christmas gift inspiration ❤

Do any of you know of a good channel that breaks down the chemistry of things like this?

Your enthusiasm is enough to brighten my day Emmy. Thank you

Bit of a tangent, but if this interests you, you should check out the processing of milk -> whey concentrate -> whey isolate

Hi Emmy, I've never seen any Dominican recipe in your chanel... Can you try Orange and Passion Fruit Morirsoñando?

Clear milk but it's actually just whey with extra sugar and flavors.

You could probably make a simple cheese like Quark out of the milk solids? and onto boozy citrus cheese tarts/ cheesecake. 😃

I'm in the South, and I've never heard of it. lol.. glad you're doing well and I couldn't imagine what it's been like for you with the smell and taste. Take care!

We have Whole Milk in Norway, we call it Helmelk or Heilmjølk if you're from the western parts

Was this filmed prior to you getting COVID or has your sense of smell/taste returned? If you're still recovering, I hope you feel better soon!

The clear drippings from curdled milk is called whey. When you make cheese curds, the clear liquid that separates from the curds is the whey... which is why it's called curds and whey. Whey is typically a byproduct of cheese making, which cheese is really what you've made here. You simply didn't finish the cheese making portion. You can make cheese using a number of methods, such as using citrus or by using rennet. Rennet, however, is an animal by-product, thus vegans prefer to make cheese using citrus juice. Whichever cheese making method you choose, the mostly clear, slightly yellowed liquid that separates out is, once again, the whey. If you're wanting true "clear milk", filtering the whey after cheese making is a more true clear milk. No brandy or sugar involved. Citrus made cheese is also quite common in India and is called Paneer. What's made here is a spiked and flavored version of whey.

One of the beaters of your hand mixer works even better than a fork as a reamer.

Love when you meet the challenge and succeed

my roomate made 'clear milk' by leaving a gallon of milk in the fridge for a month...so far... IT IS STILL THERE

Love your passion for cooking

Happy new year Emmy! Thank you for sharing!

This is awesome! Thanks, I love your recipes/experiments. Really Kool! Happy New Year and the Very Best Always! Cheers, S

Looks like it would be delicious! I wonder, with the milk being clarified, how long does this drink keep? Does it require refrigeration?

This was SO incredibly cool and fun to watch!!

I’m not sure how well UHT milk would work for this. The different pasteurization process might prevent the milk from curdling as much. Same for making cheese.

you should try making Cambodian Fish Cheese (prahok) very interesting recipe, amazing results - fish into cheese?? YES!

OOOPS! didn't read your comment about taste and smell before I commented. So sorry. But glad to hear that it is returning slowly and hope for a complete and speedy recovery. Love watching your videos and hope your New Year is a good one for you and your family!

Anyone who likes to learn about the chemistry of cooking should read the book Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus. It is a great read, and one of the main themes is the chemistry of cooking. Highly recommend!

I'd be interested to know the difference in taste in texture that the milk brings to the mixture since the brandy, sugar, juice and water already looked so good!

Happy New Year!!! Thanks, Emmy ❤️

So cool!! Happy new year!!🎉

This is interesting. I was wondering if if was syrupy, but you said it had a nice mouth feel. I want to try this. Feel better soon Emmy!

It would be great if she did this with the “Tipsy Chef” clear ice cube instructions.

Happy New Year Emmy 🎉❤🎉

What a way to celebrate getting your smell and taste back! ❤

Hey, Emmy! Would you ever make a video about recipes using soy pulp? It’s an ingredient I have plenty of and I’m looking for some ideas. Love your videos!!

I always suspected emmy was an alcoholic, but after that reaction I'm convinced 😂

I'm so glad you got your smell and taste buds working again.

You should compress the milk curds and make citrus brandy cheese curds

Emmy I recommend for your ration pack (rat packs) videos, break up and add the crackers to the main meal. Also, in my country at least, military competitions sometimes include a master chef style element with rat packs... during fun inter-unit competitions.

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🥰💗💗💗💗💗💗💖💐💐💋💋💋🫶🏻Happy New Year! I am glad you guys are recovering.💐💐💐💐💐🫶🏻

Happy New Year!

I had a brandy milk punch at Brennan’s in NOLA but it was definitely not clarified 😱

That looks delectable, thank you Emmy!

And now you have lovely flavored curds to use.

Small Nutella jars can be used for so much! (I use mine for pannacotta)

Aw, I saw that you uploaded and was hoping your sense of smell and taste had come back. Wishing you a speedy recovery!

Interesting recipe! I don't drink so I won't try some but the idea is interesting. I do all my own cooking for many years. I like trying new things sometimes. Yes, I learned a lot about myself in the year 2022. I'm looking forward to 2023! Keep being an inspiration to us! Peace!

Happy new year Emmy! 🥳🥂

I would think one could just mix extra filtered whey from making soft cheese with the brandy/sugar mixture and get the same result. Using orange and lemon juice to make the cheese should be a nice flavor too rather than just lemon or vinegar for the acid!

I love your excitement Emmy

The cuddle milk left squeeze together add salt makes cheese

So interesting to watch!! I love it!

Very interesting Emmy... I wonder if you could use the curds to make some sort of cheese product??? The yellow tint of the milk, after being strained, looks kind of like whey when it breaks from the milk....but the taste isn't there. Very interesting....

so its whey with brandy? because you can make cheese with lemon juice by combining it with milk instead of rennet, and the liquid left is whey so that is the same procedure ?
