How to Do the Magic Milk Pitcher Trick

The magic milk pitcher trick is a good option for beginning magicians who want to try an illusion that is quick and easy to master. The magician pours a pitcher of milk into a paper cone, then opens the cone to reveal there is no milk inside. She then pours the milk out of the pitcher and into a glass to prove the milk is real. A trick pitcher is necessary to pull off the illusion, but the trick itself is easy to master.

Instructions

    • 1

      Pour milk into the space between the outer wall of the pitcher and the special lining installed around it. The pitcher will look like it is filled with milk from a distance.

    • 2

      Place the filled pitcher, a glass and a sheet of paper on a table when you are ready to begin.

    • 3

      Roll the piece of paper into a cone.

    • 4

      Lift the bottom of the pitcher up as you pretend to pour the milk into the cone and keep the lip of the pitcher obscured. Because of a barrier at the lip of the pitcher and a cutout in the liner, the milk will flow from the liner into the pitcher.

    • 5

      Open the cone and show the audience there is no milk inside.

    • 6

      Lift the bottom of the pitcher a second time to pour the "rest" of the milk into a glass to show people the milk is real.
