To ask which dairy-free milk is nicest in coffee?

[Onynx]

Hoping for some serious inspiration🙈 I have been told I am intolerant to dairy and need to go cold turkey on all dairy products. I've managed 3 days so far but I really struggle with black coffee - and I looove my coffee. Could anybody suggest an alternative to cows milk to put in coffee please? 🤞🏻☕️

Almond milk. The sweetened one; unsweetened tends to curdle. If you're feeling really experimental, get chocolate almond milk.

Another vote for Oatly Barista! In another league to others IMO. Normally in stock on Ocado.

I use unsweetened almond milk because I am low carbing but I make my coffee weaker as it is less sweet than dairy milk so doesn't offset the bitterness in the same way.

There is also a barista almond milk but I haven't tried it, it's more expensive and higher in carbs.

A nut milk, warmed and frothed with one of those little battery powered frothers. Or if you can get hold if it Mylk which is a blend of different milks but again needs to be warmed/frothed or it goes a bit splitty.

I like unsweetened almond milk.

Sweetened almond every time!!!

I work with a lot of vegans so the 'milk' provided at work is sweetened soya milk (for tea or coffee). I avoided it at first and just did without hot drinks but eventually I have been converted to a splash of sweetened soya milk in my tea. It's never curdled and tastes just fine. (I haven't tried it in coffee though as I won't drink instant and that's all that's available at work). We're a charity so needs to keep costs down - the milk is Sainsbury's own brand long life sweetened soya milk.

Not all soya milks are equal. I prefer alpro unsweetened fridge one not the long life one.

Oatly cream substitute and their creme fraiche is great

Not in coffee though

Black with honey

Oat milk is far and away my favourite!

Glad you are going to try Oatly Barista. I love it and don't buy anything else. It is the only one that I like in coffee. I even prefer it to cow's milk now.

Hot oat milk for me

Kook coconut for long life milk or Soya light Alpro in the fresh milk section.

Koko not kook🤦🏼‍♀️

Oat milk batista edition (I think it's in a grey carton) is lovely, doesn't separate and froths nicely if you want a latte.

Oatly, oatly barista if you can get it. I like almond milk on cereal and to drink but not in coffee. Hazelnut milk is good in coffee too if you like a slightly nutty taste (I love a hazelnut latte). I don't think any non dairy milk is nice in tea, I'd rather drink it black

Oat milk is my fav. It tastes like if you drink the last bit of milk from your cereal. I found it taste the creamiest compared to the others.

Tiger nut milk - hands down winner. Can be difficult to find though.

There is only Oatly Barista, all others pale into insignificance

I'll buy the Oatly in the morning and report back pronto☕️

Try making Yorkshire pudding with it too, so lovely and crispy.

I like hazlenut or cashew best. Hazlenut does have a distinctive taste but it goes well with coffee. Cashew is great in tea or on cereal etc. I like Innocent or Plenish nut milks as they have the simplest ingredients.

Oatly Barista in coffee and tea. Most places sell it although it is popular.
