An Oregon Farm Is Making vodka From Milk And Calling It ‘Cowcohol”, And Now I Want To Try It

When dairy farms make cheese, they make me happy. But they also make a ton of leftover whey, the byproduct of making cheese. Some companies can convert it into protein powders, some feed it to livestock, and now some make moo hooch. An Oregon professor actually had a student ask him if it was possible to ferment the leftovers into an alcohol base to be used in making spirits. And he was intrigued enough to figure it out and, yes, you can! If you’d like to know more about the background or process, click here. And if you want to grab some moo hooch yourself, Cowcohol is available from TMK Creamery.
