Milk is a non-stacking item obtained from cows by using (right-clicking) on the udder of a cow with a bucket.

Milk had no purpose until Beta 1.2, when cake was added to the game. Three buckets of milk are required to craft cake, with empty buckets returned after being used in the process.

While cows do not always yield milk when clicked, each one can be milked repeatedly. Milk can be reliably collected by standing one block lower than the cow when using the bucket. The bucket can be emptied by right-clicking a block or using it in the cake crafting recipe. Note that milk unlike water or magma can not be placed to form lakes or rivers. When the bucket is emptied, its contents are lost and can not be obtained again.
