The present invention includes a milk dispensing assembly for use with a beverage dispensing machine for combining milk, which is heated, ambient, unheated, or chilled, selectively with a second ingredient. The milk dispensing assembly includes a single milk passage for the introduction of a flow of milk and a single passage for the introduction of a second ingredient.
