Conclusion
I can concluded that Milk was the best at stopping the hot feeling. The less effective liquid was cola.

Discussion
Why does chilli burn your mouth and why does milk stop it?
Capsaicin triggers your receptor and tells your brain that your mouth is on fire and capsaicin dissolves in oil so that's why milk helps it.

Thanks for reading!
