The very word brings to mind vibrant images of cows voraciously grazing on verdant pastures in full view of the midday sun and conjures up images of free-flowing creamy, white frothy liquid reminiscent of something out of a childhood dairy commercial. Milk has been a staple household commodity in Sri Lanka for centuries, prided on for its high calcium content, versatility and of course, default taste.
