coconut milk
- Very smooth and satisfying
- <=1 g natural sugars so basically carb-free
- amazing replacement for milk in cereal and smoothies
Oat milk. I can make it at home and customize it for 1/10th the price.
It’s also near the bottom for CO2 emissions as well.
neat!
Mountain Dew
I always felt like it tasted like already flat soda
You gotta get it straight from the Mountain cow. It’s never quite as good once it’s bottled.
I always felt it tasted like pine-scented dish soap.
I like soy milk. I don’t know why people freak out about it.
I liked the smell of it in my shaving cream but yet to formally try it in the mouth hole
It’s fine? It’s not ambrosia, but it’s easier on my stomach and a little bit healthier than the moo juice.
something about estrogen load
Unsweetened almond milk, unsweetened oat milk is second
You’re not going to get carb free, but low sugar.
Oat milk in coffee is delightful. I find almond milk a bit too “non-present” I can’t think of a better word
Yeah I like that almond milk is not too much flavor. It means it doesn’t distract from the flavor of the thing it’s added to, only changes the texture and smooths out bitterness and other unpleasant flavor components like with tea and coffee. I prefer to get good tea or coffee and not add anything, but that stuff is expensive, so I get middle of the road quality and add almond milk to smooth it out but still keep some of the highlights.
Oat milk is good for the really mediocre stuff, though. It smooths it out a lot and adds some flavor. And I do like oats a lot in general. But a lot of times the oat milk is too gritty or too heavy. I found that making my own oat milk does eliminate those problems, but takes more effort and doesn’t last long if I make a lot of it at once to reduce the effort.
Unsweetened almond milk, then oat milk, then coconut. Last resort is soy because I can ALWAYS taste some sort of soy-ness flavor, the same way I can taste a hint of coconut with coconut milk, and that soy taste is just weird.
Mostly the same as everyone else here, mostly use oat milk or coconut depending on use case, but a while back I was making something that called for pea milk and it cooked up surprisingly well.
Rice Milk
Specifically: Califia Farms Toasted Coconut - Coconut Almondmilk Blend. This is the closest I have found since I started watching my carbs/sugar intake 4 years ago.
Oatly is my one and only.
I use rice milk in my cereal. Nice and sweet. Not too fatty.
I moved to almond milk and greatly enjoy it but when I found out how much water is needed to grow them I decided to try out oak milk - didnt like the unsweatend unflavored version, best I could describe it tasted like the smell of chicken. Really weird, but the sweatened, vanilla oak milk is platable for me.
Rice milk for oatmeal, oat milk for baking, soy milk for drinking straight due to protein
Almond milk is my go to
Hemp milk
Where can this be sourced decently?
I used to get it from Giants as tempest brand https://giantfood.com/groceries/dairy/plant-based-milk-coffee-creamers/more-plant-based-milk/living-harvest-tempt-hemp-milk-original-1-quart.html
You’ll have to do some shopping around look for popular supermarkets with health food organics specific isles that have large plant milk options on a big shelf.
Someone at work bought me macadamia nut milk when I went vegan, it was at Costco for a while, and man that was good. They don’t carry it anymore and it’s not in regular stores I’ve seen.
