Oatly has been the best I've tried. I've tried to save a few bucks by going with cheaper brands, but they can be grainy, i.e. not smooth
I’ve tried all the diff brands- here’s my top 3:
1) Oatly- superior by far. I loved it so much I went to their Swedish headquarters to taste the freshest one it’s sooooo smooth and creamy
2) Chobani- fine to drink on its own, similar to 1 but if you foam it for lattes. Doesn’t have the density as 1
3) planet oat, extra creamy- if you must get this brand, only get extra creamy. Anything else is grainy/ runny
This is based on the assumption that you don’t like flavored milk (eg chocolate/ vanilla) and that you like the creaminess texture of cow milk
Okay I don’t feel inclined to switch from Oatley based on everyone’s response so far. Gosh I can’t stop obsessing how good it is. I heat up a cup in the morning and add 2 shots of espresso and it’s absolute heaven
I second the frother suggestion!!!
I love the taste of Oatly but it upsets my sensitive and bitchy stomach. This is what I’ve been using ...
I think Chobani Oat is by far the best. I don’t taste oat when I drink other brands whereas Chobani Oat is quite dense.
also if you like it in your coffee - the Oat Nutpods are 💯
“Nutpods” sounds so funny
Never tried any oat milk. Do you guys drink milk or is it just with coffee or something?
Thanks, D1 and VP1. My baseline perspective on animal welfare is a little different. I grew up in India where my father went every morning to collect milk from a dairy farmer who had like 3-4 cows. So there was no animal brutality so to speak and cows were looked after pretty well. Like an earning family member:)
There was no hormonal injections as well and it was a treat to go up on that short walk to get milk as a kid as I got to play with calves as well. Although I realize the dairy ‘industry’ is quite different here and has also changed back in India).
As far as the “ Ice Cream” - my favorite is either Oatly or Jeni’s.
The oatly ice cream is terrific!
Agreed with both McK1 and EY1 - love Oatly, have had it not just in the Bay, but also around the world (found it in Singapore 😱)!
Barista Blend!!!!!!!!!
I like CALIFIA brand, but only tried their coconut milk which I got kind of sick of. It’s not as creamy as oat milk but I’ll look for this now!!
Oatly first. Silk extra creamy second l. Califia third.
Chobani extra creamy
Oatly first, Trader Joe second, Califa third
Oatly and planet oat extra creamy
Oatly is amazing!!! Also if you're into clean eating pick the low fat one (usually don't recommend low fat options but in this one I do). Reason being that all other oat milk has some sort of oil additive (rapeseed oil, etc.) in tiny amounts to make the consistency more milk like. But why have additives you don't need!
Is it healthy? (I have no honest clue)
Define healthy ? it has more calories [and carbs if you’re counting] and less protein than some of the alternatives but it’s not that bad for you if you avoid the sweetened ones. The barista blends have a decent amount of fat.
Healthier than almond milk ? probably not. Healthier than cream - definitely.
I love it. Period 💕
