Blue milk, sometimes known as Bantha milk^[1] and Tatooine milk,^[2] was a blue-colored liquid produced by a female bantha’s mammary glands. It could be found on most planets across the galaxy. The milk was well known for being very rich and refreshing, its opaque coloring suggesting that it was also sweet. The milk was also used to make a variety of yogurt, ice cream, and cheese. Its ubiquity inspired the military phrase "blue milk run."

Behind the scenesEdit

A fan film entitled Blue Milk won best parody in the 2006 Star Wars Fan Film Awards on AtomFilms. The film was a parody of Welch's grape juice commercials with young Leia advertising bantha blue milk. Then the Empire storms the set so that they can make a more "politically correct" commercial.
