I don't think a sip or two of lactose free milk would hurt him.

I suppose if he was going to sip milk, lactose-free would be the better choice, but really, milk ain't on the menu in the jungle. Thats always my yardstick for Salty.

I like to use that mantra too. If it's not on their menu in the wild then it's better keeping it off the menu at home.

I agree that a sip or two is not going to have a major effect.

The WHY he is drinking it is more likely because it's cold and not room temperature that is the likely temperature of the cage water!

Consider providing 'cold' water several times during the day and you will likely see him not visiting the milk as often. Running stream water, is cooler than the air temperature. Although, when out in the open (direct Sunlight) the water will be warmer.
