A Purple Cow consists, basically, of purple grape juice and milk and/or milk products.   There are more variations than breeds of real cows.  Kids love it, partly because it turns their tongue purple and gives them a violet mustache.  They can also recite the poem while drinking it.   There's few beverages that pack more nutrition.  Here's several versions; take your choice.
