Milk is an item in the game Minecraft that can be obtained from Cows or Mooshrooms, a Cow counterpart in the mushroom biome. Milk is very useful in the game because it removes all potion effects on the player. Aside from that, it also removes effects such as poison, hunger, and wither. Obtaining milk in this game is very easy; all you need is a bucket.
Steps
-
Find or craft a bucket. Buckets may appear in dungeon chests, or you can craft them yourself. They have a wide variety of uses, including gathering milk from Cows and Mooshrooms.- To craft a bucket, you'll need 3 Iron Ingots. Open your Crafting window. Place an Ingot in the middle square of the left column, the bottom square of the middle column, and the middle square of the right column. This will create a bucket.

Find some Cows or Mooshrooms. Cows spawn in most environments, except deserts and ocean. Mooshrooms only spawn on Mushroom Islands. Both Cows and Mooshrooms give the same amount of Milk.- You can lead Cows and Mooshrooms by holding Wheat. You can also give two adult Cows or Mooshrooms Wheat to breed them.
