Morphology
The meaning 'milk that has not been pasteurized' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'raw' (in a natural, unprocessed condition) with 'milk' (the nutritive liquid). This compositional and cross-linguistically common adjective+noun pattern makes the phrase immediately comprehensible to a B1 learner who knows both constituents.
Etymology
Raw milk comes from the simple image of milk taken straight from the cow, with raw meaning it is not 'heated' to kill germs. That's why raw milk means milk in its natural, 'not processed' form.
