About Soybean milk
Soybean milk, usually called soy milk or soy beverage, is a drink made by extracting and cooking soybeans with water. It is consumed as a beverage and used in drinks, cereals, cooking and baking.
It is typically opaque and off-white, with a mild, sometimes bean-like flavour and a pourable texture. Products may be plain or flavoured, sweetened or unsweetened, and may be fortified or formulated for different uses. These additions and processing choices mean that products sold under this name are not compositionally identical.
