Can you freeze Milk (Whole)?

The editorial freezer estimate for Milk (Whole) is 3–6 months; its exact source is still under review. Check product-specific instructions before relying on this interval.

Milk freezes well if you first pour a little off, since it expands as it solidifies. Freeze it in the original jug or a rigid container and use within 3–6 months. Thaw it in the fridge and shake hard, because the fat and water separate and the texture turns slightly grainy — thawed milk is best for cooking, baking, or smoothies rather than drinking.
