Best Ways to Store It

Once you’ve made room, you have two options:

• Freeze the whole jug, or
• Pour milk into ice cube trays for smaller recipe-ready portions.
• Important note: only freeze milk in plastic containers. Glass jars can snap from the extreme cold.

How Long Does Frozen Milk Last?

You can safely keep frozen milk for up to three months.

To thaw it:

• Store it in the fridge for 24 hours, or
• If you’re in a rush, drown the container in cold water. It’ll thaw in about 30 minutes.

Why You’ll Love This Trick

I had no idea you could freeze milk—but now I do, I’m spaced! This trick saves me from:

• Last-minute grocery runs
• Spitting expired milk down the drain
• Feeling guilty over wasted food

It’s also super useful in everyday situations:

• Stocking up during a sale? Freeze the extras.
• Heading out of town? Freeze what’s left instead of tossing it.
• Just need a splash for coffee? Use a frozen cube.

Give It a Try!

If your family’s milk habits are as erratic as mine, freezing milk might just be your new favorite kitchen hack.
