5 Delicious Milk Substitutes

Got Something Else Besides Milk? 5 Delicious Milk Substitutes

With my sensitive stomach and a lactose intolerant fiancé, you won't find any dairy milk in my fridge. What you will find instead is goat's milk, rice milk, and almond milk, and I'm fully satisfied with all of the above — ice cream on the other hand is a slow work in progress. Thankfully with all the dairy free options on store shelves today, it's easy to steer clear of milk and choose some yummy alternatives. Whether you're vegan or trying to give up cow's milk for health reasons, here are some delicious substitutes.

I agree about the almond milk! It has little flavor if you get the original so it can go into recipes perfectly! I make corn chowder with it all the time! Plain soy still gives off a sweet flavor but I love vanilla soy with espresso!!

Try Laloo Goat Milk ice cream in Deep Chocolate. It really takes like the real thing and the chocolate covers up that goat-y taste. So yum, I can't leave it in the house or I eat the whole thing!

Thanks for the heads up darc5204! Yup, I meant as an alternative to cow's milk. Goat's milk is soo much easier on your digestive tract!

Goat's milk is dairy *facepalm*

That was my thought too, weffie. Goat's milk is dairy. Still, for people who are sensitive to cow's milk but not against dairy in general, it can sometimes be an effective substitute.

I usually switch it up between almond, soy and rice... vanilla almond is my favourite for drinking, but I find soy better for cooking when creaminess is desired. How is goat's milk not "dairy milk"? I thought anything excreted from a mammal's teat counted as dairy, not just cow's milk.
