Excellent idea. Does it eventually mix together? The milk I mean?

Eventually, maybe 60-120 seconds it starts to bleed into the oil and eventually the drops blend together. I learnt early on to make sure that the plate I was using to hold the oil had absolutely no detergent residue on it as that wreaks havoc witih the oil and the fats in the milk and you only get about 10 seconds before te drops break up. Give it a go, it is a great way to burn up an arvo.

How big are the drops? Like Macro size, or bigger? Looks like fun and I just happen to have a brand new box of food colors I bought to dye water for microscope specimens. :)

Drops are only about 2mm, I used a very small dropper of sorts.
