Want warm, fresh soy milk daily but stuck with two frustrations? Buy store-bought, and you’re squinting at labels to guess hidden sugar or additives. Make it yourself, and you’re stuck soaking beans, blending by hand, and hovering over the pot to avoid burning—prep alone eats up most of your morning.
Let’s dive into the full guide on how to make soy milk
What is Soy Milk?
Soy milk is a plant-based drink made by soaking and blending soybeans with water, then boiling and straining the liquid. It’s naturally lactose-free, cholesterol-free, and packed with plant protein.
Is Homemade Soy Milk Healthier Than Store-Bought?
’’I make soy milk at home with a soy milk maker—it’s fresh, no additives, and I control the sweetness. But on busy days, I grab store-bought ones like Silk Unsweetened Soy Milk—convenient, plus fortified with calcium and vitamins. For me, homemade is pure and customizable; store-bought wins for convenience and extra nutrients.‘’
1. Homemade Soy Milk: Fresh, natural, no additives. You control sweetness and ingredients with a soy milk maker.
2. Store-Bought Soy Milk: Convenient, consistent flavor, often fortified with calcium and vitamins (e.g., Silk Unsweetened Soy Milk).
3. Verdict: Homemade = purity and customization. Store-bought = convenience and extra nutrients.
How to Pick Good Soybeans
Choosing the right soybeans is the first step to making delicious, smooth soy milk at home. Here’s what to look for:
1. Color: Select uniform, light-yellow beans without dark spots or blemishes.
2. Size & Shape: Pick beans that are plump and round, not shriveled.
3. Freshness: Fresh beans have a mild, nutty smell. Avoid old beans with a stale or musty odor.
4. Organic Option: Go for organic soybeans if you want a cleaner taste and fewer pesticides.
5. Test Soak: When soaked, good soybeans expand evenly and soften within 8–12 hours.
👉 Pro tip: Always rinse thoroughly before soaking to remove dust and improve flavor.
How to Make Soy Milk Recipe
If you’re curious about how to make soy milk, here’s the basic recipe:
1. Soak the soybeans: Place 1 cup of dried soybeans in water overnight (8–12 hours).
2. Rinse and peel (optional): Removing the skins reduces bitterness.
3. Blend with water: Add beans and 4 cups of water to a blender or soy milk maker.
4. Heat and filter: Boil the mixture to remove raw flavors and strain through a sieve or nut milk bag.
👉 Modern method = you can put the beans in the machine one night in advance first, then press one button, and enjoy perfectly cooked soy milk in 15–20 minutes.
Soy, Almond, Regular Milk: Which Is Best for Your Diet?
One of the most common questions people ask: which plant-based milk is best?
1. Soy Milk: High in protein (similar to cow’s milk), creamy texture.
2. Almond Milk: Light, nutty flavor, lower in calories, but also lower in protein.
3. Regular Milk: Naturally rich in calcium and protein, but contains lactose (which many people struggle to digest).
Tried Making Soy Milk, but Found It Unbearable?
Many beginners say: “I tried making soya milk, but it tasted bitter and undrinkable.”
Here’s what may have gone wrong:
Under-soaked beans → leaves a raw, grassy flavor.
Skipping boiling → soybeans must be heated to remove the beany aftertaste.
Didn’t peel beans → skins add bitterness.
Wrong ratios → too many beans per water.
FAQ
Can You Freeze Soy Milk?
Yes, you can freeze soy milk, but the texture may separate once thawed. If you want to freeze, shake it before using or use it for cooking rather than drinking straight.
Does Soy Milk Go Bad?
Absolutely. Fresh soy milk, especially homemade, lasts only 3–5 days in the fridge. Always smell and taste before drinking. Store-bought brands last longer due to preservatives.
Can kids drink soy milk every day?
Yes, most kids 1 year and older can—with keynotes. Choose unsweetened soy milk fortified with calcium and vitamin D (plain soy lacks these, which kids need for bones).
