We Put MYOM Milk to the Test – Here’s What All the Hype Is About
Cartons of oat milk are great… until they’re not. As someone who rarely eats cereal and just enjoys a splash of milk in my morning coffee, I can count on one hand the number of times I’ve actually made it through a full 1L carton.
It pains me to say the rest usually ends up down the drain when it inevitably goes sour.
And there’s nothing more frustrating, right? Not only are you literally pouring money away, but you then have to head out to the shops and buy more. That’s spilt milk worth crying over.
Loading up on smaller cartons or long-life milk are solutions of sorts, but they still come with compromise – whether that’s taste, fridge or cupboard space, or excess packaging that ends up in the bin.
And that word – compromise – is exactly what needs to go if people are going to ditch dairy for good.
Enter: MYOM. Oat milk with a twist, MYOM’s sachets are moo-ving mountains (sorry, had to) when it comes to removing compromise from the plant-based equation.
With a solution that delivers barista-worthy oat milk on demand while eliminating excess waste, the MYOM movement is quickly gathering pace.
Keen to see whether MYOM Milk could solve my own daily conundrum, I grabbed a 500ml Value Bundle using code GYMFLUENCERSAGENCY for free shipping – and put it to the test.
Here’s how it went.
What is MYOM Milk?
MYOM is oat milk like you’ve never seen it before. Its liquid sachets are packed with a blend of rich, creamy oats fortified with essential nutrients like calcium, iodine, vitamin B12, and D3.
Free from dairy, added sugars, lactose, and any need for refrigeration, it’s a vegan-friendly alternative that eliminates the usual hassle.
MYOM stands for “Make Your Own Milk,” which pretty much tells you everything you need to know.
The Value Bundle comes complete with a retro-style glass bottle – the perfect tool for shaking up a pouch into 500ml of fresh oat milk.
Not only does the glass bottle add a touch of vintage flair to your kitchen, but it massively cuts down on the packaging behind your daily brew.
Just squeeze one of the recyclable pouches, add cold water, shake, and you’ve got a bottle of deliciously full-bodied oat milk that stays fresher for longer. No powders. No mess. No logistical nightmare.
Our MYOM Milk Review
Because MYOM Milk stands for more than just taste, I’m switching up the format a little. To cover all the bases, I’ve broken my thoughts into five key categories:
- Ease of use
- Flavour
- Versatility
- Sustainability
- Value for money
Let’s get into it.
MYOM Milk: Ease of Use
No matter how great it tastes, if something isn’t easy to use in today’s impatient world, it won’t stick. So one of my biggest questions going into this was: is MYOM Milk more faff than flavour?
Turns out – not at all.
The instructions were completely idiot-proof and easy to follow, even for someone as cack-handed as me. Making 500ml of milk was as simple as:
- Adding 240ml of water to the glass bottle (there’s a fill line to help)
- Squeezing in a 65g pouch
- Shaking well for 30 seconds
- Topping up with 200ml more water
- Shaking again
Not a single part of that was painful. In fact, it was a weirdly satisfying change of pace.
The sachets poured smoothly without needing to be squeezed like an overused toothpaste tube. Just an effortless flow – no gloop, no frustration.
Blending MYOM Milk was also a breeze. This might sound a bit “old man yells at cloud”, but nothing winds me up quite like shaking something to death only to find it’s still full of lumps.
None of that here. The whole process took about a minute, and honestly? That initial 30-second shake might even be overkill. It mixes perfectly the first time.
MYOM Milk: The Taste Test
There was a lot of buzz about MYOM’s flavour, so I had high expectations. Was I disappointed? Not in the slightest.
I’d go as far as to say this is the best oat milk I’ve ever tasted. High praise, but fully deserved.
There’s a natural sweetness to it that’s seriously satisfying without being cloying. It’s almost hard to believe there’s no added sugar involved.
I’m not sure how they’ve pulled it off, but the flavour profile is rich, nutty, slightly caramel-like – basically everything I want from oat milk. I enjoyed it so much, I started using less water just to get a more intense flavour hit.
Forget coffee – just grab a straw.
The Versatility of MYOM Milk
I’ve only been using MYOM for a short while, so I haven’t gone wild experimenting yet. But everything I’ve tried so far? A hit.
- With cereal? Chef’s kiss.
- Iced coffees? My new summer obsession.
- Straight from the bottle? Unashamedly yes.
I’ve got no doubt MYOM will work great in porridge, baking, smoothies – whatever.
And having an instant stash in the cupboard makes that experimentation way more doable. Fancy pancakes? Just mix up another bottle – no barriers, no stress.
Sustainability
A big part of going plant-based is sustainability. Even if you’re not vegan, it’s about making smarter choices to reduce your footprint.
Is MYOM Milk one of those smart choices? Without question.
While ready-to-drink plant milks have improved things, MYOM goes further.
- No liquid waste – we’ve got water at home
- Fewer transport emissions – no need to lug litres across the country
- Minimal packaging – recyclable sachets, reusable bottle
- Zero cow burps – good news for the atmosphere
It’s a genuinely conscious alternative. And for me, a bit of a no-brainer. Less waste, better taste.
Value for Money
Last but not least: price. And considering how much I’ve sung MYOM’s praises, it’ll come as no surprise that I think it’s great value.
I picked up the 500ml Value Bundle for £24.99 – that includes the glass bottle and 24 pouches.
That works out to roughly £1 per 500ml – or around £2 per litre – for premium oat milk that’s nutrient-packed, long-lasting, and always ready when you need it.
All in all? Seriously good value. If you want to make sure you never run out of oat milk again, head over to MYOM’s website to get started.
