About this deal

So what should these little pots of milk be called? Enter quite possibly the single-most ridiculously named measure of volume: the 'jigger'. Jiggers

Shaped like an hourglass (or two eggcups joined together, one slightly smaller than the other), the name comes from the larger cup which measures out 1.5 fluid ounces (44ml) - a 'Jigger'. The other smaller cup measures out approx. 1 ounce (30ml). There are different size Jiggers available, but all measure a larger amount and a smaller amount (for singles or doubles).Whether you're setting up a hospitality tray, embarking on a camping trip, or need a convenient milk solution for hotel rooms, Lakeland Long Life Semi Skimmed Milk Portion Pots / Jiggers are the perfect choice. Each pot contains 12ml of delicious semi skimmed milk, making it an ideal companion for teas and coffees. So, now having a name for a small measure of liquid, such as that of the amount of milk needed to turn a cup of tea from tasting like hot water with herbs in it to an ambrosia worthy of the gods, the second stage is putting this amount into a suitable receptacle. A Spot of Milk Portioned for Efficiency: The Lakeland milk pots are portioned to minimize waste when serving milk in large quantities. This ensures that you can provide the right amount of milk without any unnecessary leftovers.

Milk poured from a Jigger will generally glug slowly and feebly into your drink. This is to not only ensure none spills onto you, but to give you time to think about how utterly insignificant you are in the whole scheme of things.

A Spot of Milk Milk poured from a jigger will generally glug slowly and feebly into your drink. This isn’t only to ensure none spills onto you, but to give you time to think about how utterly insignificant you are in the grand scheme of things. The average-sized Milk Jigger 2 holds about a ½ ounce (14ml) of either fresh or UHT 3 milk. This is available in a variety of different forms; full fat, half fat, semi-skimmed, skimmed, lactose free, gluten free, nut free, taste free. The choice is yours.

It’s worth noting that if milk jiggers are left out of the fridge and in a hot place for too long the small amount of air contained in the pot can warm, leading to increased pressure inside the jigger. This is evident by light 'doming' of the foil top. Steer clear of jiggers displaying this doming, as upon opening they’re liable to explode in your face like a milk bomb. Past Your Eyes The average-sized milk jigger 2 holds about a ½ ounce (14ml) of either fresh or UHT (Ultra-Heat Treatment) milk. This is available in a variety of forms: full-fat, half-fat, semi-skimmed, skimmed, lactose-free, gluten-free, nut-free, taste-free. The choice is yours. As anyone who’s worked serving alcohol will tell you (or should be able to tell you - if not, don't ask them for anything more complex than a pint of bitter), a jigger is a measuring tool for dosing out shots of liquor. A: Absolutely! These Lakeland milk portion pots / jiggers are specifically designed for use in hot drinks such as tea and coffee. The semi skimmed milk adds a creamy touch to enhance the flavor of your favorite beverages.

Long Shelf Life: Rest assured that the Lakeland semi-skimmed milk pots have a long shelf life, allowing you to store them without refrigeration worry-free. Say goodbye to concerns about milk going off while being outside the fridge. It is quite possibly an individual thing, but in a modern convenience-based society having a small, easily accessible amount of milk for your tea, in an equally small and conversely inaccessible plastic container with a foil top, is tantamount to the euphoria of actually having five minutes to yourself to enjoy said cup of tea.

Best Vegan Milk for Coffee

Coffee whitener and tea whitener is usually a non-dairy powder, granular milk or non-dairy liquid jiggers as substitutes for regular dairy milk and cream. One of the main advantages of these non-dairy coffee whiteners is that they do not require refrigeration and are usually long life. Coffee creamers and whiteners are usually made from a variety of ingredients including vegetable oil, sugar, sweeteners and water. Some coffee whiteners are made from dairy milk where the liquid is removed to create a dairy whitener powder. Other coffee whiteners are made from soy, oats, almonds and coconut and these are very popular with Vegans, Vegetarians and for those people who are lactose intolerant. These are shaped like an hourglass (or two egg cups joined together, one slightly smaller than the other). The name comes from the larger cup which measures out 1.5 fl oz (44ml) - a 'jigger'. The other, smaller cup measures out about 1 fl oz (30ml). There are different sized jiggers available, but all measure a larger amount and a smaller amount (for doubles or singles). Milk Jiggers can be found in a variety of places, but most commonly their empty and crushed remains are to be seen littered around boardrooms and meeting tables near listlessly placed dirty cups, used teabags, and the hot water urn. Piles upon piles of them are arranged in a careless manner, dribbles of milk leaking from their spent shells. Train and aircraft seats can also hide an astonishing amount of discarded Jiggers, the crevices home to them for weeks on end (some even harnessing the ability to grow their own mould). Milk Dud? As anyone who has worked serving alcohol will tell you (or should be able to tell you, and if not don't ask them for anything more complex than a pint of bitter), a Jigger is a measuring tool for dosing out shots of liquor. Since time immemorial, humans have needed milk for their tea 1. Well, that or lemon juice - but, let's face it, that's just silly. However, the exact amount of milk for the perfect cup of tea - how do you gauge that?
