Star Wars‘The favorite strange drink is coming to our galaxy.
Lucasfilm today announced the first official blue milk drink that will be available in grocery stores. The iconic drink — which appeared in the first Star Wars in 1977, around the Skywalker breakfast table – now sold by dairy company TruMoo.
So what’s in blue milk? Finally the secret can be revealed. The press release says it contains “1% skim milk and features natural vanilla flavor and blue color for a truly galactic delicious experience your family will enjoy.”
Here is the blue milk scene from Star Wars. According to Mark Hamill, the substance (which was actually “long-life” milk with blue food coloring) tasted horrible and literally made him “choke” trying to keep it down.
We hope the folks at TruMoo have improved the flavor of the prop version used on Tatooine. (Come to think of it, this is what some very poor farmers in the middle of an endless desert were drinking because they literally couldn’t get anything else to hydrate their bodies. Are we… are we sure we want to drink this?)

That’s it no the first time Disney sold blue milk. Visitors to Disneyland and Walt Disney World can drink blue (and green) milk at Star Wars: Edge of the Galaxy areas of each theme park. The difference there, besides you having to go to California or Florida to try them, is that they are non-dairy drinks; they are essentially fruit smoothies in two different flavors. This blue milk that TruMoo will sell It is actually a dairy, with food coloring to dye it blue.
As for why Galaxy’s Edge parks don’t sell blue milk that is actually milk… you Want to drink a tall glass of moo juice in the middle of a 105-degree day in Orlando? I didn’t think so.
TruMoo’s Star Wars Blue Milk will be available from April 17th. Imagine how delicious it will be if you remove the dust that old box of C-3POs and drizzle with a big dollop of creamy blue milk.
