My GF loves lattes, but she’s lactose intolerant. She refuses to take lactose pills, for some unknown reason.

I’ve tried making lattes with skin milk and almond milk, but they don’t foam quite the same way whole milk does. Any suggestions?

    As others have suggested, lactose free milk is the best option. (which is just milk with a small amount of lactase. Your body naturally makes lactase, it’s not some kind of unnatural chemical).

    However, if your GF has objections to lactase, soy milk is a great alternative. Soy milk foam is firmer than cow milk foam, but it tastes less sweet. You could add sugar to compensate, but I find I actually favor the taste over regular milk.
