As a food safety expert, I would like to advise that consuming milk after its expiration date can be risky, depending on the storage conditions and the type of milk. Pasteurized milk, when refrigerated properly, may last a day or two beyond the printed expiration date, but it's important to check for signs of spoilage such as an off smell, curdling, or change in color before consumption. Ultra-pasteurized milk and UHT (ultra-high temperature) milk can last longer due to their processing methods. However, drinking milk after the expiration date is not recommended as it may lead to foodborne illness.

if you smell it, it smells ok, then it's fine. it doesn't matter what the date says, it could last two weeks beyond or 2 days depending on a lot of variables. you'll taste it if it is bad. a sip of bad milk isn't going to do anything to you.
