I never had a problem with soy milk. I love it!

I love  So Good lite with it's "nutty" flavour. I love it with tea & milkshakes or kahlua wink And I use it in cooking.

I prefer Vitasoy Rice Milk with cereal because it's abit sweeter.

Can always try nut-milks, easy to make and delicious, also easy to digest.

Soak 1 cup almonds (per litre to litre and a half)  over night in water (12 hrs).
Store in fridge.
Drain liquid and rinse almonds, you will notice the almonds have swelled.
Place in blender with 1-2 litres of water, the more water the less creamy.
Pour contents into a nut-milk bag or fine kitchen siv into a jar/bowl.
Add vanilla or cinnamon & nutmeg.

Great in smoothies, porridge and as a general milk supplement in cooking.

Note! Keep the almond 'pulp' and either dry it out in a dehydrator to be almond meal, a good protein boost for any shake or even make some desserts with them (loads of recipes here: http://www.marksdailyapple.com/the-many-uses-of-almond-meal/)

Out of 500g of almonds I made 5 Ls of almond milk (I use in alot of smoothies and dont mind it not being too creamy), I add different spices to 1L jars and the 5Ls is lucky to see 4-5 days.
Enjoy! Keeps up to 4 days in air tight jar. (I use old wine bottles).



EDIT: heres the nutrient info too!

Almonds naturally contain high levels of potassium and vitamin E. The milk derived from these nuts has 50% of your daily recommended intake of vitamin E per serving with 150 mg of potassium as well.

Almond milk contains 25% of your daily value of vitamin D, which helps your body absorb higher levels of calcium. The high levels of vitamin D work in sync with the calcium found in almond milk. One cup contains 30% of your daily value.

Other minerals found in almond milk include copper, magnesium, riboflavin, iron, phosphorus, zinc and manganese. Minerals like copper and iron help to improve oxygen flow in your blood, while riboflavin, an essential nutrient that must be obtained through diet, helps metabolize foods and protect against harmful free radicals.

is it just me of did this person not just say they hate soy milk?


ok so...

not all soy milk is vegan.. so don't assume that...


my friend has been getting cafe vitasoy in his coffee at glorias for ages...

they know he is vegan...

then they switched to the calci+ version..

i'm not sure but is that the purple one your asking about?

Because I looked into it for him....


and the calcium is from rocks... BUT it just happens that the Vitamin E used... is from fish I think.. or something animal based.


I bought soy milk enriched with chickpea for calcium..... im now thinking maybe eating heaps of brocoli or tablets is the way,,, it is so gross tasting haha i have to make smoothies to make it drink able.


anyway... try oat milk.. (not with the hint of honey like I get if your not into that)... rice milk is nice too...

anyway... you could just have water with cereal... but eat it faster as it gets soggy quicker
Are you referring to the hi calci vita soy that is purple? I looked on the back of mine and cannot see Vitamin E in the ingredients???

For taste I like almond and oat milk happy

Though I do still drink soy milk as it tends to have more added vitamins and minerals such as B12 etc... than other milks do.

Also you will find that every brand and type of soy milk that you try will taste different. I only buy So Good Essential, but you will just have to try different types for yourself until you find which one you like.

Next time you go to the supermarket try 'soy milky'
It's the only brand I enjoy, it's creamy and has less of a 'soy' or 'floury' taste to it happy
Soy Milky is my favourite too. I don't drink any of it plain, but it works in coffee, and even better in Chai Tea (I drink Nerada organic chai, and the flavours just meld beautifully).

P.S. Each to their own, but I found Oat milk and Rice milk vile.

I LOVE SOY MILK (LITE). I could never drink cows milk straight either but soy I can manage - i like to add vanilla extract, cocoa or molasses.

Rice milk = watery.
Oat milk & almond milk have a bit of a Kick but OK on cereal.


Soy is best for coffee , I CANNOT drink the 'regular' one (dark blue) or the fat free (red) I drink the LITE one (light blue) perfect for coffee !

Did you see Sanitarium have a new cafe style soy milk which apparently tastes like the ones they use in cafes?
I haven't tried it yet but it sounds interesting.

I don't like soy milk very much either. At the moment I get So Good Essential, but I want to try So Good Lite, because apparently it doesn't have much of a soy flavour. So you might like to give it a try? I've heard a lot of good reviews about almond milk, too. Oat milk is good, because it doesn't really taste like anything, but mine curdled in tea and coffee.
