Myth: Snakes drink Milk
Scientific Facts: - Snakes do not drink milk, neither can they digest it properly. They are reptiles and have no association with milk, only mammals who have mammary glands can produce milk and thus, a liking for milk in non mammals is unlikely. But in a crises when severely dehydrated, a snake might drink any liquid available.

All reptiles do not have the enzyme to digest milk. Milk digestion is only in mammals.

Um, other than indirectly if eating a female prey item that happens to still be nursing young, none. Milk is offered to cobras I believe in I want to say India during some festival (Sorry, vaguely remember seeing something on animal planet or discovery channel or something...)

But naturally and by choice, none.
