That's the one we'd recommend (Mrs Sock has been dairy-free for a while) and it's usually about £1.50 a litre, though you can sometime pick up two litres for £2. Personally prefer real milk in tea (skimmed) and coffee (semi) but coconut milk on cereal is fine.

I'm dairy free through an allergy. Alpro unsweetened almond in my tea and on my granola, sometimes with oat milk. Drink my coffee black.

As if by magic, the office fridge has just run out of milk, but there were three cartons of Oatly Barista.
Honestly can't taste the difference. This could be the start of a new era....

Sounds grand. Though I'm thinking that 'creamier and sweeter' equates to a humungous number of calories. Win-win if that's not the case.

Oatly is always a good shout, as mentioned above. Alpro have just bought out a cashew one, pretty healthy, very creamy and very tasty, but for me the best tasting one is Pure Hemp.

What about Goats? Are they just as dangerous to the planet? As in dairy!

Almond milk is Lovley and creamy buy the unsweetened version unless you really like sweet things it's really nice in coffee to the point I much prefer it the cows milk, I also think it's really good to cook with particularly when making a white sauce

Cow's milk for calves Das. Meet me in The Jolly Boatman in 15 and we'll do a couple of pints of milk stout and a 250g bag of Revels. Cheers. Xx

Don’t think so, think there are actually a few less, and less carbs as well.

Funnily enough, I tried Dream Rice this week as an alternative to the usual semi-skimmed. Was fine for the homemade Bircher Muesli and was ok in coffee. Didn't try it in tea but I'm not sure it would have worked very well.
Sounds like oat milk is the next one to try!

I'm with the Alpro organic soya milk since going allergic to cow-juice about 5 years back. I like it. At home i got for Tescos organic for a quid a litre and that's completely fine too. For hot drinks, though, the cheaper end of the range doesn't like to mix too well. Just don't go cheap though - which is the same advice i'd give for veggie sausages and veggie fingers, which have sweetcorn and carrot bits within.

My wife makes her own oat milk.
Basically she soaks porridge oats in water overnight the strains though muslin. Took her a few go's to get the consistency right, but it much cheaper than buying in cartons.

I am genuinely interested as to the background behind these choices.
Lactose intolerance/genuine dietary rationale is a real PITA so you guys have my sympathies.
Converting to veganism because of family members and therefore convenience over individual beliefs is questionable IMO.
A desire to be more humane to animals is laudable but not for me - just pay more for sustainable and humanly collected milks.
I’m astonished we survived as a species without oat/soy/almond versions for so long

I have tried almond in the past and found it watery and horrible. I tried something else and faound that shite too. I need dairy in my tea and cerial. However I am now on lactose free dairy, and it has transformed my life (details on another thread).
