    Can you drink dry milk?

    We drink it often in our house. If you already have another brand of milk stored that was drum dried or simply doesn't taste as good, you can use it in baking where the taste won't be as noticeable. If you actually need to drink it, mix a bit of sugar and vanilla in with the milk and make certain it is cold!
