Low carb Milk
Low Carb Milk - recipe by Carol of this board
“Milk” can be made if you take a quart of half-n-half
Mix it with equal parts of cold water plus an extra 1/4 cup (use a good bottled water)
Add a teaspoon of Splenda (it takes the place of the lactose)
Mix well and chill overnight.
It will stay fresh for 3–5 days
If you liked your milk "skim" before going low carb, you may want to add more water.
If you liked "whole" milk, try making it with 1/2 table or whipping cream and 1/2 half-n-half. The mix as I make it appoximates 2% milk.
So, how many carbs are we talking about? Well, it depends on how you make it. If you make it according to these primary directions and have a 6–8 oz glass, it will run you 4 to 5.5 carbs.
If you make it with half cream you can get the carbs down to about 3 grams per glass. Ditto for making it in the "skim" version.
