Jokes aside, we italians do actually drink Moscato d’Asti with cakes or pastry on good occasions. It’s not a regular wine, it’s a highly sweet one, which we drink either alongside another sweet food (again, cakes, pastry, sometimes even Pandoro, but it’s much less common with Panettone), or alone.
At my house we dine with some goddamn class

Not sure how you can drink that grape. “Highly sweet” is mega underselling how sickeningly sweet it is.
AlligatorBlizzard@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
I like moscato.
Manischewitz Concord wine is sickeningly sweet though. The only reason people drink that is TRADITION.
sgh@lemmy.ml 2 weeks ago
I don’t know if that clears it, but you don’t chug it, you sip it.

So y’all drink a sweet wine to go along with sweets? Seems far too sweet.
StupidBrotherInLaw@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
The issue is the contrast between a sweet, rich dessert and dry wine makes the wine taste sour and unappetizing.

As a viewpoint that ISN’T AI slop, go with the cheapest dry sparkling white you can handle. And, use it INSTEAD of milk, not with it, because carbonation makes things sour, and sour milk is spoiled milk. It won’t taste good. Also, for your own health, PLEASE, I’m BEGGING YOU, do something nonalcoholic.

use jt instead of milk
I once did this with Baileys. It was such a good idea in theory. In reality my Xmas morning was ruined and it took nearly an hour to eat the full bowl because momma didny raise no quitters.
Properly grim though i do not recommend.

Did the same thing when I turned 21 with a bowl of Cookie Crisp because “lmao im a growned-up now imma eat growned-up food”
I’d never done combat with a bowl of cereal before, but that was a fight. I made sure to let my friends know what a mistake it was between every bite because my mama raised an honest man. Honest enough, I mean.

“Sour milk is spoiled milk” may I introduce you to… YOGURT! Oh wait, that is technically spoiled…

Cheese is also fermented milk. With extra steps.

Not sure I like pairing Moscato. It leans very heavily into stone fruit rather than into the berries and cream in Oops All Berries. I like Prosecco better. It can be a bit nutty.
For me, personally, ideally I want something with some lees aging. That often gets into rich, breast flavors. So a demi sec Champagne or Cremant would work. A rose Cremant d’Alsace maybe even?

Is this more of the literal shitposting? Because drinking alcohol with milk will give you intense diarrhea.
Kolanaki@pawb.social 2 weeks ago
I never got diarrhea drinking white russians which are literally alcohol mixed with milk or cream.
dzsimbo@sopuli.xyz 2 weeks ago
Not too intense… Many-a cocktails contain cream.
snoons@lemmy.ca 2 weeks ago
Ah, like Baileys. I always thought the milk was treated, or the curds removed after addition or something. Can’t really do that if it’s already in stomach tho.
ericatty@infosec.pub 2 weeks ago
It will? Why do wine and cheese with so well together? I’ve had cream in certain drinks before and not had a problem. And cheese with pretty much everything, beer and nachos, yum

I was misremembering teenage experiments.
rumschlumpel@feddit.org 2 weeks ago
43 con leche is a popular drink in Spain, it’s literally a milk-based long drink. I don’t think it would be as popular as it is if everyone got diarrhea from it. Could be pushing it if you’re drinking those all evening, though.

Dairy and wine will lead to a very shitty outcome. Exquisite shit post.

Prosecco is always delicious. I down that shit like a middle aged soccer mom trying to drink away her life.

Didn’t burn nearly the water and co2 for those suggestions either.

15+ years in the wine industry gives a man certain skills… and I’ve earned each one of those bullet points with my blood, sweat and puke over the years.
Plus, we can go deeper…

Chardonnay isn’t usually vinified sweet enough, sadly, to stand up to Corn Pops and Honeycomb. There probably is one, somewhere, but it’s a reach. You’d really want Sauternes or Tokaji Aszu. They’re produced from grapes infected with a rot that gives them honey flavor notes.
Champagne and Port I like. Rice Crispies… what? I want to know why? From Loire, Bordeaux, New Zealand, Washington, or California?
arotrios@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I chose Chard because most are buttery, and which compliments the buttery corn of Corn Pops and the honey in Honeycomb. Didn’t think about the botrytis wines at all tgh - they’re in a class of their own. Thinking high-end granola with lots of fruit there.
