Coffee fedi, help me out!

I’m getting more and more milk/lactose intolerant as I get older, but lactose free milk is too sweet for me.

I don’t sweeten my coffee, and even lactose free milk with no sweetener else makes my coffee too sweet.

So, what do I replace my milk with when I order coffee?

    The best alternative I found when doing this was Mylk, which is Oat based but a lot more complex a formulation than most of the just Oat milks, the whole equivalent is the best, the coffee targeted one IMO wasn’t great but its worth a try also.

    However ultimately I learnt how to make coffee to get more complex flavours out of it and bought speciality coffee with a decent grinder and ended up finding sweetness in the coffee itself when its brewed well. This is the rabbit hole that is worth pursing, black coffee made a variety of ways.

    The other possibility is start taking in some homemade kefir, it might reduce the lactose intolerance.
