2.5 year old won't drink milk

There is no need for milk to get enough calcium, even without other dairy, although it's a bit harder. You can probably get some cheese in by putting it on pasta etc, cooking risotto with parmesan etc. And you can use yoghurt in curries, tandoori chicken etc. But even without dairy, it is possible to eat enough calcium - check out this list of foods with calcium - Vegetarian Network Victoria - Complete Nutrient Summary

DD1 is has gone off milk to, but she will still have smoothies, I just give her a little cup with her afternoon tea and she is happy with that.

We just have chocolate syrup milkshake mix in the house to add to milk, for both kids. DD#1 doesn't get thirsty (she's 9.5yo) so the only way to get her to drink is by schedule. DD#2 drinks when she is thirsty. We used to get chocolate powder or milo but DD#1 has issues mixing it in, so syrup worked better. We get it in 3L commercial sized bottles, if that says anything ...

The obvious example being cows. Who don't drink milk. Followed closely by chickens, who make a calcium-enclosed egg every day.
