The difference

10 kcal

On calories they are close. The difference is what is in them: cow's milk has 9 g of protein a glass, oat milk 3 g and more carbs.

Whole milk is about 160 kcal a glass. Barista oat milks and sweetened ones can come out higher than the plain carton.

Use the one you like in your tea or coffee. A splash makes little difference; a big latte a day is where it adds up.
