This is for my sister........she needs to know if it is readily available in the main supermarkets? what about lactose intolerant milk? rice milk?

[Sotos]

I've seen soya milk and lactose intolerant milk at Chris and Debenhams. All big supermarkets have them i think. About rice milk I don't know. First time I hear about such thing!!

[anastasiaC]

Thanks Sotos
rice milk is popular with the asian community so always available in Australia.......

I am sure Orphanides in Nicosia has also rice milk. I bought it once !

You can get them all here. Even organic rice milk. The main supermarkets stock them. Lactose reduced milk is in a green bottle made by Christies. Rice milk is yuk! I have to say. You can get flavoured soya milk or plain with added calcium. They cost around 1.50 a litre.

They had rice milk and goats milk in a small 'touristy' supermarket in Cyprus last week. Why I remember this I have no idea!

[g&t]

yup, Chris is favorite, but Orphanides, and ESEL also stock soya,rice and almond milk

we are living in Larnaca, and my sister has a problem with soya and dairy so she sticks to rice milk.

I have seen soya milk in Orphanedes Larnaca. but there is a health shop called the Natural Doctor on ioannou hackett street, corner of ta pende adelphia periptero. near to the fire station in Larnaca and they sell rice milk and all kinds of other stuff, gluten, wheat free etc.

to be honest I have found cyprus to have something for everyone so far, you just need to ask where to find it or do what I do... get lost and stumble on it.

There are shops down every nook and cranny

[anastasiaC]

cool! there never used to be a health food shop when i lived there......

OK thanks will let my sister know....she flies out tonight.

Why they call such things milk? They should be called juice! I think all these are just a marketing ploy
