almond or rice milk?

A couple of weeks ago I purchased both almond and rice milk to determine which, if any, I preferred to cows milk. At first, I wasn't a huge fan of the almond milk, but after adding it to my oatmeal, decided I liked it and would happily drink it as a milk substitute. Rice milk, on the other hand, still has a very strange flavor and aftertaste; one I remember from my childhood when I drank it due to a milk allergy. This latter milk-substitute is not one I will choose to imbibe, but I will recommend it to those who cannot or do not wish to drink cows-milk and cannot drink almond milk. There are other substitutes to consider as well, such as oat-milk. Experiment, see what you prefer, and don't forget to glance at the label to ensure that you're also getting your necessary (i.e. essential) nutrients such as calcium.
