Also known as: Milkaholic Trend · Milk Addiction TikTok Trend · Matchaholic

The Milkaholic Trend is a mid-2025 TikTok video trend where people drink milk while acting like they have a serious alcohol addiction. Started on July 31, 2025, by TikToker @noahnestell, the trend uses the song "Sir, This Is A Cut Throat Fashion" by Her Words Kill as its soundtrack and spread rapidly across the platform, with creators swapping milk for other non-alcoholic drinks like Yakult and matcha.

Overview

The Milkaholic Trend involves filming yourself drinking milk with the dramatics and staging of someone deep in an alcohol problem. Creators pour milk into scotch glasses, chug it from bottles, or take shots of it, all while looking emotionally devastated. The key visual gag is the contrast between the completely harmless drink and the rock-bottom-alcoholic energy of the performance.

Every video in the trend uses the same TikTok sound: "Sir, This Is A Cut Throat Fashion" by Her Words Kill1. The specific lyric "Better pack your tears into a suitcase" plays over the footage, adding a moody, melodramatic tone that makes the mundane act of drinking milk look like a cry for help. As the trend grew, creators expanded beyond milk to other beverages like probiotic drinks and matcha lattes.

On July 31, 2025, TikToker @noahnestell posted a video of himself pouring milk into a scotch glass and drinking it as though it were whiskey1. The video was set to "Sir, This Is A Cut Throat Fashion" by Her Words Kill, landing on the lyric "Better pack your tears into a suitcase". The combination of the deadpan performance and the absurdity of treating milk like hard liquor struck a nerve. Within 12 days, the video pulled in roughly 2.2 million likes1.

The video was set to "Sir, This Is A Cut Throat Fashion" by Her Words Kill, landing on the lyric "Better pack your tears into a suitcase". The combination of the deadpan performance and the absurdity of treating milk like hard liquor struck a nerve. Within 12 days, the video pulled in roughly 2.2 million likes1.

How It Spread

The trend caught fire almost immediately. On August 1, 2025, @tyler7mcleod posted his own version using the same sound, captioning it "When my wife makes me change a diaper as soon as I get home from work." His video picked up over 41,900 likes in 11 days.

Two days later, on August 3, @theyeofrah posted a video mimicking the original format and racked up over 1.1 million likes in just nine days. The trend was clearly no longer a one-off.

By August 9, creators started experimenting with the format. TikToker @lustnfu posted a video of himself chugging several bottles of Cool+ (a probiotic drink) to the same soundtrack, earning over 470,200 likes in three days.

The next day, August 10, @mili.3371 pushed the concept further by drinking matcha with full alcoholic energy, coining the hashtag #matchaholic in her video description. That video hit over 290,400 likes in two days. The "-aholic" suffix became the trend's signature, with creators applying it to whatever drink they were dramatizing.

How to Use This Meme

The milkaholic format typically follows a simple pattern:

1

Pick a non-alcoholic drink (milk is the classic choice, but anything works)

2

Stage it like an alcohol binge: pour it into a whiskey glass, swig from the carton, or line up shot glasses

3

Act visibly distressed, tired, or at your lowest point while drinking

4

Use the "Sir, This Is A Cut Throat Fashion" TikTok sound as the audio

5

Optionally add a caption that frames a mundane life problem as the "reason" you're "drinking"

Fun Facts

The original video by @noahnestell hit 2.2 million likes, making it one of the bigger TikTok trend starters of summer 20251.

The entire trend depends on a single song by Her Words Kill, a band that likely saw a massive spike in streams from the trend.

The trend evolved from milk-specific to drink-agnostic in under two weeks, with matcha and probiotic versions appearing by August 10.

@theyeofrah's version crossed 1.1 million likes despite being a fairly straightforward copy of the original format, showing how hungry the audience was for more of the same joke.
