Do you like drinking coffee but have a hard time choosing what milk or creamer add to it? 

Today I am going to tell you what the differences are between some of the most popular milks and creamers, and which one may fit your needs the most.

For those of you who are lactose intolerant. Three of the most popular dairy milk substitutes are Almond Milk, Soy Milk and Oat Milk. Almond Milk has a light and nutty flavor, but be careful it can be bitter if it is not sweetened. It also contains around 60 calories in a serving. Oat Milk is a much creamier and sweeter alternative than its non-dairy counterpart, Almond Milk. It also has more calories than Almond Milk, with around 130 calories per serving. Soy Milk is the closest in flavor to dairy milk. Like Almond Milk and Oat Milk, it has a nutty and creamy flavor and also foams like dairy milk.

For those of you who prefer a milk with dairy in it, the three most popular options are Whole Milk, Low Fat Milk (also known as Skimmed Milk), and Fat Free Milk. Whole Milk is the creamiest of these three, but it is also has the fattest out of the three.  Low Fat Milk is not as creamy as Fat Free Milk, but it also does not have as many calories. As you could imagine, Fat Free Milk has the lowest calorie count out of the three. It is also the thinnest out of the three options, due to this it tends to dilute your drink.

In general, it is important to note that when talking about milk and creamer, the more fat in the milk, the creamer it will be. An other option you can put in your coffee as a milk substitute is Half-and-Half. Half-and-Half consists of equal parts  whole milk and heavy cream. It has a higher fat content than pure milk, and as a result is creamier as well.

I hope you find this useful when choosing what type of milk or creamer to put in your milk.
