Back then, they had no refrigeration, so when milk went bad, and you had nothing else left, you had to at least give it a try before you died due to lack of nutrition.
Most things we've discovered were done so in increments and with intelligence. How it began is nothing like how we do it today.
There are very little accidents that lead to great discovery. Most of it is hard-work, observation, and trial-and-error.
they probably used to drink milk from woman in the past too (not just baby's, grown people too, to survive), so the next step would be obviously trying it from animals :P
Like most things, by observing other animals doing it.
"That fruit poisonous?"
"Probably not, that bird is eating some."
