It is best not to mix any medicine with milk - any other drink is ok.
This is because you risk your daughter refusing her milk if it tastes bad.
Can you try a different juice that your daughter hasn't had before and is a real treat. Only mix it with a small amount so she gets the full dose.
If you exhaust every possibility and she still doesn't take the medicine then mix it with her milk but give her the smallest amount of milk possible.
