In a pinch I can have small amounts of regular milk\/dairy but not much. Make my latte with it, I&#8217;ll survive, but I will need to avoid dairy for the rest of the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ve tried other milk alternatives in the past, but don&#8217;t like any for flavour reasons or consistency issues. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At this point I just like my milk to be blue water (have you ever noticed that skim milk looks like that?). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This evening I ordered a London Fog with skim milk at the Tim Hortons&#8217; drive thru. When I got to the window though they had realized they had no skim milk, so they offered me regular, almond or oat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Knowing I couldn&#8217;t have regular milk and I dislike the flavour of almond milk I said they could use oat milk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The moment I took a sip I knew I didn&#8217;t like it. I put it aside for a bit, then remembered it was there and reheated it a little. This did not help. I took another sip but no. The consistency was wrong, the flavour was not right, over all the oat milk had ruined the tea. It tasted like what I imagine a warm edible oil product would, too sweet, too oily and too much. Even my lips felt oily like after you have cheap whipcream on dessert. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bleh. I poured it down the drain and rinsed my mouth with water (regular, not blue). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today I learned I do not like oat milk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And that in future if there is no skim milk, I only want black tea, no milk alternatives.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I do not like oat milk.
