There's a fair amount of lactose in milk and it will be absorbed more quickly,  being hot. A small latte will take me from 5ish to 9.6 in 20 mins (from CGM data) but for me it will be cleared by 2 hrs.I use double cream (zero carb) at home now. It is almost entirely milk fat and doesn't affect my BG level at all. When out no-one seems to do cream so I have either espresso or machiatto. Skimmed and semi-skimmed milk has a higher percentage of lactose by volume than entire milk. I have never used them myself but all the non-dairy "milks" I've looked at seem to have as many carbs as cow's milk. There might be some that haven't. I understand they are intended as "low-fat" items.</blockquote>
