English Coffee with Oat Milk (1 Coffee Cup (6 Fl Oz))

Choose an unsweetened, no-added-sugar oat milk and use a smaller splash; check the label for added syrups or malt-based ingredients.

Skip sugar, flavored syrups, honey, and sweet creamers; add cinnamon or vanilla extract for flavor instead.

Have the coffee alongside a small portion of plain Greek yogurt or a handful of almonds to slow the rise.

Avoid drinking it on an empty stomach; have it after a balanced meal containing protein, fiber, and healthy fat.

Try half-caffeinated or decaffeinated coffee if you notice caffeine itself raises your readings.

Take a 10–15 minute easy walk after drinking the coffee to help reduce the post-drink rise.
