Heat the milk, water, and sugar in a large saucepan. Cook the cleaned corn cobs for 20 minutes over medium heat. Remove from the milk and drain well. For the butter, thinly peel the lime with a vegetable peeler and finely chop the zest. Halve the chili pepper, remove the seeds, and finely chop. Mix the butter with the lime zest, chili pepper, and a little salt. Grill the corn cobs for 5-8 minutes. Remove from the grill and serve with 1/4 of the lime butter on each cob.
