Depiction of the Korova Milk Bar in the movie.

"...and we sat in the Korova Milkbar making up our rassoodocks what to do with the evening."

The Korova Milkbar, a more mature take on a traditional milk bar, is a bar that specializes in serving Korova Plus, milk mixed with various legal drugs. The milk bar is mentioned as having no liquor license and instead serves the drug-laced milk to circumvent that fact and serve to minors.

In the movie, the milk bar is furnished with various white statues of naked women with brightly colored hair and breasts that can produce milk. The walls are also decorated with the names of the various drinks served there.

Alex and his droogs are described as going to the milk bar often in order to sharpen up for violence, theft and rape. The opening scene in the movie and book takes place in the milk bar on the night before Alex and his droogs fight Billy Boy and assault F. Alexander and his wife. In addition, a scene occurs in which Alex sees a woman singing opera and hits Dim for making fun of her and another depicts Alex's depression after being freed from prison and learning his parents don't want anything to do with him anymore.

Korova is Russian for Cow.
