13 Healthiest Milks for Girls Who Love Their Body ...

Milk used to mean cow’s milk. Then we got semi-skim and skimmed. For alternatives there was really only goat milk and it wasn’t widely available. Now days, the number of available milks is incredible. Whether you’re lactose intolerant or just don’t want to ingest dairy, here’s a list of milks you’ll see on supermarket shelves and in health food stores.

Do you enjoy traveling to new places or prefer familiar destinations?

1. Almond Milk

Almond Milk One of the best dairy milk alternatives is almond milk. Great for giving you a much needed dose of calcium, almond milk has a distinctly nutty flavor but due to its watery nature doesn’t pose too much of an overwhelming presence in the mouth.

2. Soy Milk

Soy Milk Soy milk is perfect for people who like to make a lot of smoothies. It has been described many times as a slightly sweeter, thicker version of almond milk, and it has a much stronger aftertaste that lingers on the taste buds for longer.

3. Rice Milk

Rice Milk Perhaps less heard of than the previous two, rice milk is the perfect dairy alternative to have on your breakfast cereal in the mornings. Rice milk’s semi sweet, medium rich, pleasant flavor will help enhance the taste of almost anything that usually calls for dairy milk. Note how little calcium rice milk has compared to others.

4. Hemp Milk

Hemp Milk The secret killer dish that people can cook that includes hemp milk is mashed potatoes. Hemp milk is another variety that boasts a slightly nutty flavor, and it also has a very thin, watery texture that works great when combined with silky mashed potatoes.

5. Flax Milk

Flax Milk Rather than adding to a dish whilst cooking, the very best use for flax milk is to dip your cookies in to it. Some accuse flax milk of being a bit too bland, but I think it’s subtle flavor is great for accompanying a rich cookie, and it is also lactose free so that’s a another positive.

Oat Milk Oat milk is a wonderful milk alternative to use when you are making a big batch of delicious pancakes.

I know that many readers wonder a lot about all the different types of milk. It would be great if anyone who has tried any of the non-dairy types could share their views. What have you tried and which do you like best?

@grunge that'd be my kinda milk ; (

I will try hazelnut milk it sounds nice

Rice milk is probs my favourite type of "milk" cause it's just so tasty and doesn't taste like rice at all

Thanks for this one! Joy - my beloved almond milk has the most calcium, if you article is accurate. Awesome news!

I thought hemp was marijuana so marijuana milk? Awesome

I've been drinking Silk's 25 calorie Almond Milk for about a year now. I'll never go back to any other milk. Watch the sugar content! I thought skim was healthy until I read the sugar grams in it.

I have tried most of these and still prefer almond milk and coconut milk over the others. I used to drink only non fat milk but have heard that they add extra sugar to compensate how diluted it is.

Silk unsweetened cashew milk is my very favorite! Creamy and delicious in anything you add it to!!

Hazelnut milk sounds Delish!!! But I'm not too sure about "soy". Most nutritionist say stay away from soy

Need to try this
