You’ve heard of blue milk. You’ve seen green milk. You thought that was it. However, starting this week, Disney is introducing a third milk to its Star Wars theme park selection. One that would make the cast of Mean Girls proud.
Yes, that’s right. It’s pink. Pink milk will be on the menu starting Thursday, January 8, at the Milk Stand inside Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge exclusively at Disneyland in California. No word on what this specific drink’s flavor profile is, but thankfully, we won’t have to wait long to find out. (We’re guessing something more citrus-y, like pink lemonade, though.)

Now, we know what you must be thinking. “No one drinks pink milk in Star Wars. Where is this coming from?” Well, that’s only sort of true. According to Wookieepedia, pink milk was briefly introduced in the 2023 Marvel Comics book Sana Starros #1, which followed the exploits of the would-be wife and smuggler friend of Han Solo. In that book, the pink milk comes from animals called po’acksters. And before you ask, yes, that comic (and every comic released now) is canon. Pink milk is real.
From there, a few additional questions remain outside of the taste. Will pink milk be a permanent thing? Will it show up at the Milk Stand at Galaxy’s Edge in Hollywood Studios in Orlando? (A Disney Parks spokesperson confirmed that it’s just in Disneyland “at this time.”) And, most importantly, where will it rank among the other milks? Personally, I prefer blue milk on a hot Disneyland day. io9 editor James Whitbrook prefers green milk, just like Jedi Master Luke Skywalker on the shores of Ahch-To. Could pink milk rival either of those?
And while this is a relatively minor change in terms of what’s happening at Galaxy’s Edge, a much bigger one is coming in a few short months. In May, the ride Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run is getting its first, long-awaited, new mission. Previously, and until then, fans have been able to fly the Falcon to Corellia, inspired by Solo: A Star Wars Story. But in May, you’ll go on a new mission alongside the Mandalorian and Grogu, inspired by the new movie The Mandalorian & Grogu, both opening on May 22. Will there be pink milk on this mission? We’ll find out soon.
