I always thought the milk was used to neutralize the PH of the capcaisin... maybe I'm wrong. Based on your comment, shouldn't butter also work? Might be worth trying. With syrup, it'll be like pancakes in my mouth without the pancake.
Well.. if it helps, it helps. I'm not sure if gargling or drinking olive oil works, but if you're dying from pain, it's worth having an additional option to try.
