Goat Milk?

Memories of goat milk as a kid led me to avoid it as an adult. After being a sick child the doctor told my mom to try giving me goats milk. One sip and we knew that wasn’t happening. It was only a few years ago, I was visiting a friend and was offered goat cheese and crackers and realized it wasn’t terrible after all. That strong goaty taste was barely detectable. To my surprise, I actually like the taste of goats milk! Fast forward to 2022 and we have dairy goats! What’s the difference from when I was a kid and now? There are a few factors in getting a good tasting milk. One is freshness, another is getting it chilled soon after milking. Another couple factors to getting good milk are what the goats are eating and the does proximity to the bucks. Well there you have it! You might like goats milk too! I will do a follow up blog on the vast benefits of drinking unpasteurized goats milk. Stay tuned…
