According to the label, frozen donkey milk lasts for 6 months at −18 °C. This makes it easy to build up a supply for several weeks—especially in winter, when you don't want to keep reordering. This planning guide will help you find the right quantity and determine how much freezer space you need.
Step 1: Determine how much you want to enjoy
First, consider approximately how much donkey milk you enjoy per day or week. Many drink a small glass at a set time of day, while others use donkey milk mainly in coffee or recipes. The following table helps you calculate the total:
| Quantity per day | per week | for 4 weeks |
|---|---|---|
| 50 ml | 350 ml | 1.4 liters |
| 100 ml | 700 ml | 2.8 liters |
| 200 ml | 1.4 liters | 5.6 liters |
Step 2: Check freezer space
Roughly estimate the space required for the corresponding number of bottles, plus a little extra room. Here are a few tips:
- Store upright: Keeping bottles upright in a drawer saves space and prevents them from slipping.
- Sort by batch: Place bottles with earlier best-before dates at the front.
- Do not pack too tightly: Freezers work better when air can circulate.
Step 3: Choose the right package
Larger quantities are cheaper per 100 ml. When purchased individually, 200 ml costs €49.90 (€24.95/100 ml), 1 liter costs €199.90 (€19.99/100 ml), and 2 liters cost €374.90 (€18.75/100 ml). Regular customers save 30% on every delivery with the Vitalprogramm.
Step 4: Thaw in portions
- Only thaw what you need: Plan the quantity for the next two to three days.
- Thaw slowly in the refrigerator: at 2–7 °C, not in the microwave.
- Shake well: Ingredients may settle during thawing.
- Consume promptly: Enjoy thawed donkey milk within 3 days.

Alternative without a freezer
Little freezer space? Then donkey milk powder is a practical addition. No freezer is needed: approximately 10 g of powder and 90 ml of water make around 100 ml.
