    Another vote for unsweetened vanilla almond milk for my cereal. I used to drink soy but now try to minimize how much soy I take in. The only time I drink chocolate milk is after a workout as a recovery drink and for that I like the Fairlife. It doesn't bother me how sweet it is.

    There is a brand called Yup! that is lactose free and the chocolate is to die for. They also have white and strawberry varieties.

    I like Silk unsweetened cashew milk, but it has a lot of added calcium. Regarding taste, my second choice is So Delicious brand unsweetened cashew milk. It's higher in calories, but doesn't contain so much calcium. It's found in the little quart boxes that are shelf stable.

    I mix a full cup of heated cashew milk with 1 cup coffee.

    Depends what you want to use it for. I really like unsweetened roasted almond milk for cereal and coffee but I wouldn't use it for cooking or tea.

    Rice milk has more of a mild flavor then the 'nut' milks.

    I'm not a huge milk drinker, but I prefer almond milk or rice milk in my cereal. Unflavored/unsweetened soy milk tastes a little 'off' to me, but it's o.k. if I'm having it in something like a chai latte.

    My favorite substitute is unsweetened cashew which has a very mild flavor and lowest in calories, 25 per serving. I also use it to cook, Almond is good too.

    Cashew milk!! It's so good and creamy. I haven't had cow milk in probably 12 years so I can't really speak to how it tastes in comparison but I LOVE cashew milk

    If you want it for cereal, consider "protein milk" (aka protein shake used as milk)...

    I usually avoid cereal as it is higher carb and doesn't fill me up much... Using protein milk helps!
