LALA Whole Milk: The Calorie Breakdown You Actually Need

Is This Actually High Calorie?

Right then, let’s be honest: 62 calories per 240ml serving is genuinely low. We’re not talking about some marketing spin here—this is objectively gentle on the calorie front for a dairy drink.

To put it in perspective, a medium latte from your local coffee shop will run you 120-150 calories, and that’s before you’ve had breakfast. LALA’s whole milk sits comfortably below that, which makes it a perfectly reasonable choice even if you’re watching your intake.

At 25.8 calories per 100g, it’s the sort of food you can actually relax around. No awkward mental maths required, no guilt required. Captain Obvious here will tell you that’s a win.

How It Fits Your Day

Let’s talk real numbers. If you’re aiming for 1,500 calories, a 62-calorie glass of milk represents about 4% of your allowance. Barely a blip. You could have three glasses and still only clock up 186 calories.

For a 2,000-calorie day (the classic baseline), milk becomes even more forgiving—just 3% per glass. This is the sort of thing you can genuinely forget to count if you’re feeling rebellious.

Hit 2,500 calories? At that point, LALA milk is practically plunder for the taking. Two glasses with breakfast and you’re still sitting pretty.

The real advantage: it doesn’t require you to make trade-offs elsewhere. Have your milk, have your toast, have your life.

Macros Worth Noting

Here’s where it gets interesting. You’re getting 3.33g of protein per serving, which is solid for something this light calorie-wise. That’s about 21% of your calories coming from protein—genuinely respectable.

The fat content (3.33g) and carbs (5.0g) are evenly matched, which creates a balanced drink that won’t leave you feeling bloated or sluggish. No fibre, obviously—it’s milk, not porridge—but that’s not really its job.

The surprise? This macro split makes it genuinely useful in a post-workout context. It’s not protein powder, but it’s a sensible liquid addition to a meal without being a calorie bomb.

Swaps If You’re Cutting Hard

Skimmed milk sits around 34 calories per 240ml, so if you’re in deep deficit territory, that’s an option. Almond milk clocks about 30 calories for the same volume, though you lose half the protein.

But honestly? If you like whole milk and you’re not in a hardcore cutting phase, there’s no genuine need to swap. The calorie difference between this and skimmed is basically nothing—about 28 calories per glass. That’s a single biscuit. Not worth drinking something you don’t fancy.

A Practical Idea

Throw a 240ml glass into your breakfast setup: that’s 62 calories, 3.33g protein, and a calcium boost. Pair it with porridge and berries, and you’ve got a genuinely rounded meal under 300 calories.

Or—and this is worth trying—use it as your post-lunch drink. Sits better than a third coffee, fewer calories than juice, and it actually keeps you satisfied until dinner.

LALA whole milk isn’t flashy, but it’s dependable. That’s worth something.
