Here are some things to consider as you’re choosing your go-to plant milk.

Almond milk has an array ofhealth benefits.

But mostplant-based milkshave different consistencies and flavors that can impact your dishes.

you could also use both almond and oat milks in your cooking (like creamy soups and sauces).
