This Clarified Milk Punch Cocktail uses the milk clarification process to smooth and soften harsh flavors, draw out flavor, and add a soft luscious mouthfeel. When milk is added to an acidic mixture the casein proteins in the milk clump and trap tannins, polyphenols, pigments, and some flavors. Those clumps are then strained out leaving a liquid that is clear in color, soft in flavor, and generally refined.
