Gray milk? That's just wrong! Just kidding, nice job.

The way you have your lighting setup is the major strength of this composition.Too bad that basic rules do not allow for fixing the blemish on the right hand side. Unsure if the cookies add significantly to the composition. Without them the tones surrounding the glass would be more prominent which would be worth seeing. It would have simplicity similar to this recent ribbon winning image by kiwiness:

The milk looks bizarre. It resembles pond water.

I like this, but I like it even more with a bit less light. Takes the harshness out of the bottom of the glass and brings it in a bit tighter.
