What’s the difference between non-dairy organic milks and regular milk?

In a nutshell (pardon the pun!) non-dairy milk alternatives are made from plant-based sources like nuts, soy, coconut, rice and oats. As they’re dairy-free, they are suitable for vegetarians and vegans who have excluded animal-based products from their diets. They’re also suitable for those who may be allergic to cow’s milk, lactose-intolerant or simply don’t like the taste. Organic non-dairy milk substitutes also have the advantage of being free from antibiotics and pesticides and are cruelty-free and environmentally-friendly.

Which plant-based milk should I choose?

It all comes down to personal taste and your reason for choosing non-dairy milk in the first place. We recommend experimenting with a few until you find one that floats your boat. Soy milk has a mild and creamy flavour and, nutritionally, is a close non-dairy substitute to cow’s milk. Almond milk has a slightly sweet and nutty flavour and can be used in tea and coffee. It’s generally considered one of the best plant-based milks for cooking.
