I have been trying all different types of milk alternatives like oat milk, almond milk etc. But none of them taste similar to cow’s milk. I know a lot of it has to do with familiarity with the milk I’ve been drinking all my life. But I want to understand why there has not been a lab-created cow’s milk yet.

There has been, kinda sorta. The process is just too expensive to be able to sell it as “milk”, so it’s being used in higher sale-price milk products like ice cream.
A company called Perfect Day uses fungus to create the proteins found in cow milk, like whey proteins and casein. Their ingredient was used by Brave Robot for ice cream sold in stores, and Smitten in stand-alone ice cream shops.
