Oat Milk to purchase in Rome (specifics in post)

I don't eat soy - and have become rather lactose-intolerant since my last visit to Rome! I'll happily have an espresso for afternoon but for my own morning coffee in the Airbb, I prefer oat milk. I looked up Naturasi but the closest one is rather far away. We are staying close to Piazza Navona - anyone know where I might find a liter or two?

48 hours til we leave! Been waiting a long time for this...now if 'someone' could change the weather forecast and banish the impending rain...I'll still be happy about visiting but way happier than slogging around Rome in the rain!

We were just in Italy for 3 weeks. Every hotel had lactose-free milk (senza lattosio in Italian) on offer at the breakfast buffet. Some also had oat milk ( oat is “avena”). I expect you can find one or the other at most grocery stores. We found the “senza lattosio” at a Pam grocery in Bologna for our apartment there.

We go to Italy annually. I can't specifically recall oat milk but know that we easily purchased and used almond milk.

There is a large Naturasi store in Piazza Farnese which is less than a 10 minute walk from Piazza Navona.

I buy oat milk in any chain grocery store - Conad, Coop, Carrefour - even here in my tiny town (pop 2000). I was in Rome last week and it was equally available, except in the grungy mini-market I tried late one evening. I would not expect you to have any trouble. You will usually find oat, soy and almond milk together with the UHT dairy milk on a shelf near all the zillions of breakfast cookies. Good luck and best wishes for a great trip!
