    any liquid resembling the milk of animals, as the liquid within a coconut, the juice or sap of certain plants, or various pharmaceutical or cosmetic preparations: a gentle cleansing milk for your skin.

    the milk of the rubber tree;

    a gentle cleansing milk for your skin.

    a whitish, potable liquid made of ground nuts, legumes, seeds, or grain blended with water and often a sweetener, used especially as a substitute for dairy milk, its main ingredient as specified: almond milk; rice milk.

    nut milks;

    almond milk;

    oat milk;

    rice milk.

    Words have multiple meanings. Oat milk is just definitively milk - there’s nothing to debate.

    The folks who think it’s exclusively boob juice are being willfully ignorant. It’s like saying “rock” can’t be a genre of music because that word is already taken by the hard things in the ground.
