Oat or coconut milk puzzle

[SchnozzaHoomum]

Hi mums
I love good old full milk - proper dairy milk from a moo - but I also like the occasional latte made with oat or coconut milk, just because it’s decadent and creamy. I stood in front of the chiller cabinet in the supermarket this morning and was completely bamboozled by the selection. I thought oat milk was oat milk and coconut milk was coconut milk. But there are sugar free varieties, low fat ones, just a surprising number of choices. What is the milk you’d get in an ordinary latte in Caffè Nero or Pret? I don’t want sugar free if they’ve substituted the sweetness with chemical rubbish. I just want natural oat or coconut milk. How can this be so complicated?! 🤣. Gracias.

Starbucks use Oatly Barista

I quite like the barista oat milks. The alpro one is nice. And the Asda one too.

Thanks, lovely pals. I just did a bit of reading, and I didn’t realise how processed these alternative milks are. I will stick to good old natural tried and tested for centuries cow’s milk!

I bought an oatly Bariasta milk once when there was a problem getting ordinary milk. I enjoyed it!
