If aluminium hydroxide reacts with lactic acid, the products will be aluminium lactate and water.

Explanation:

This is a standard acid-base neutralization reaction.

The equation would be:

3underbrace("CH"_3"CH(OH)COOH")_color(red)("lactic acid") + "Al(OH)"_3 → underbrace("[CH"_3"CH(OH)COO]"_3"Al")_color(red)("aluminium lactate") + "3H"_2"O"
