Many people use rice milk or drink for a variety of reasons, including those who are lactose intolerant. I use Rice Dream Rice Drink for medical reasons and actually have gotten to like it. When I first tried it out I could smell a very light "rice" smell, but when I use it on my oatmeal or cereal I can hardly tell the difference from 2% milk. I'm just happy that there is an alternative to milk on the market.
Because I don't use a lot of it, I opted for the 32 fl oz (1QT) 946mL containers this time around as it only stays fresh for 7 to 10 days after opening. If I used more I'd get the 64 fl oz rice dream rice drink, also sold on Amazon. These do come in the aseptic boxes, which should last up to a year, but the expiration date on mine was ten months out. No problem for me, but a heads up for those who like to stock up.
The cost is higher, but I don't have to travel to get it. My only problem with shipping is whomever is the shipper tossed the box so hard that three of the plastic tops were dislodged. The seals were intact, but I simply refrigerated and used these first. The box they came in was actually difficult to get into as they were so well packed. Prime shipping may be the issue here because they have to move the product (I'm not close to a warehouse). I'm giving my rating on the Rice Dream, not the shipping as that was less than ideal. Convenience is great and I'm happy with that. I put an abbreviated list of nutritional and ingredients from a box.
