Yes, blue milk is real in the sense that it exists and is available for purchase, though its formulation differs from what might be expected in a fantastical setting.
What is "Blue Milk"?
The "blue milk" you find at Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge is not from a blue creature, nor is it cow's milk dyed blue. It is a plant-based beverage designed to be a frozen treat with fruity characteristics.
Key Aspects of Blue Milk:
- Plant-Based: It is made with a blend of coconut and rice milks.
- Frozen: The drink is served frozen, similar to a slushy or milkshake.
- Fruity: It's designed to have appealing fruity notes in its flavor profile.
- Alcoholic Version: At Disney's Hollywood Studios, an alcoholic version called the Blue Milk Cooler is also available.

How Real is it?
While it's "real" as a drink you can actually buy and consume, it’s not a naturally occurring animal-sourced product from a galaxy far, far away. It's a real, commercially available, plant-based beverage designed to mimic a fictional drink.
