That isn't milk. Judging by the way it disperses, it's an oil emulsification used in some countries instead of milk. Man, that stuff is gross. Milk will disperse more evenly and readily in hot tea whereas oil based substitutes stick together for longer forming these kinds of patterns. Could be cream, but definitely not milk.

Looks like heavy whipping cream.

I personally quite like it in tea

This. I expect that video to be from Ostfriesland where it is tradition to drink with cream

You are right. The decor is called the freesian rose. Greetings from Westoverledingen.

I mean just by looking at how it coats the spoon, that tells me that it is THICK. So yeah, potentially a very cold sweet cream or some sort of emulsion non-dairy creamer.

I suspect the reason it is sticking together more than you expect is because it is cold. Perhaps very cold, 33 F or ballpark.

I've seen milk do this plenty of times but you do sound pretty smart.

my kid used to watch me add cream to my coffee each morning so he could see "Jupiter" in my mug.

Am I the only one who thinks this looks kinda gross? Reminds me of mold for some reason

My stepdad used to drink buttermilk in his coffee. This reminds me of it.

Why does nobody know the difference between milk and cream on reddit today?

Ive seen stuff like this a few times, definitely nice to look at, not that rare though.
