While I was trying get the white stuff to look like milk
at some point it looked like candle wax. That's all I can
say because I haven't done much with media. I'm not sure
if that milk would still look ok in a real scene with multiple
light sources and radiosity so I still consider it a trick
and not a realistic method.

Ok, I have some suggestions :) Multiple type 5 medias with different
eccentricities, colors and densities. Also worth trying are different
filter/transmit values for the surface texture. That's a lot of
variables but try first increasing the density (the value between
color and Diffuse) and changing the color of the milk media. Good luck :)
