Dairy free subs are a mixed bag I've found. Some of them are too full of sugar and other additives, so I've been hunting for the best alternatives for a while now.

I had 'Unsweetened Almond Breeze' yesterday for the first time. It's the best dairy-free milk I've tried.

I find Rice Milk and Oat Milk too sweet - just naturally too sweet. While Soya Milk isn't too sweet but it is too chalky, which is fine for cereal but no good for a bechamel sauce IMO.

'Unsweetened Almond Breeze' is both neutral / plain tasting and slightly creamy, but not greasy in the way full fat cow milk is. Just an edge of nuttiness which is fine. But it's much less pronouncedly nutty that Alpro's almond milk.

Very close to semi-skimmed fresh cow milk. I recommend it to anyone looking for a good 'milk-like' milk sub.
