    My sis came to visit me in France, we went out for a meal and then had coffee. She asked for oat milk

    The waitress brought the coffee, and normal steamed milk

    My sis said she asked for oat milk

    The waitress said “Oui madame, it is 'ot milk”

      • We really liked the flavor of Elmhurst, but it doesn’t foam at all, so for mocchas I use Better Than Milk. We tried the Elmhurst Barista blend and it tasted… bad. As in, it had gone bad. Elmhurst sent us a replacement, but that tasted just as awful. So I’ve been avoiding those; maybe other brands would be better.

        My wife has an autoimmune disease that’s triggered by a laundry list of random foods - from cabbage and carrots, to hazelnuts, to any dairy product. She can eat any meat; it’s truly bizarre. But luckily, oat milks are OK, and they work well in recipes and don’t add any odd flavor, like coconut milk does.

        Anyway, Better Than Milk is easy to find, it foams spectacularly, and it tastes good. I’ll try their barista blend, though; thanks for the recommendation.
