I love milk and i love tea. I used to be a smoker and replaced it with tea up to and still 10 cups a day any way the milk i was consuming was too much fat and sugar until I found no sugar pea milk by barrister its amazing the taste is exactly the same as if it were regular semi skimmed milk for tea cereal's and cooking no horrible aftertaste or smell like others --- I'm not sure whether I'm allowed to post product information here but -- Oh well i have

It certainly compares favourably on carbs with cows milk 2g per 100ml as opposed to 5g per 100ml so if you like it that is good. People do post suggestions on good products they have found.
 
We have a variety of plant milks in the house from time to time. Mostly our default is no-sugar oat milk (made with UK oats) which is similar in carbs to semi skimmed. Cow’s milk is my preference in hot drinks, but for cooking sauces oat milk is pretty much indistinguishable I find.
 
I used to have 1/2 a tea spoon of brown sugar in coffee, but would drink about 8 cups per day, now that adds up to a lot of sugar, so I tried oat milk with no added sugar and found with oat milk I didn't need or want to add sugar. "Result"

I think oat milk tastes better than cow's milk although more carbs than almonds.
