The only "milk" I will drink straight out of a glass would be sweetened chocolate soy milk.
I mostly drink fresh soymilk, straight. I rarely cook with it.

I'm not averse to adding some chocolate, vanilla, etc. to make it a treat, but I rarely do.

I totally enjoy ice-cold plain unsweetened soy milk as a beverage. But I cook with it too.

I'll look for soy egg nogg in December. :)

I love mint chocolate. Drinking really thick liquids makes me a little uncomfortable though, not sure I'd like it. Was that silk that made it?

I buy my milk at albert hein (Witch i'm sure you'll know to find ;) )
Alpro is the best but also the most expensive.
the household-brand of ah's milk (soya drink) is also very nice and cheaper.

And if you want to tread yourself you should buy alpro's almond milk. very nice but also very expensive.

DIsclaimer: I'm not working for alpro i'm just saying they make delicious soy and almond milk :lol:

No worries, I'm also a big fan of Alpro. :)

I don't have an Albert Hein in my town, so I always go to the Plus. It's not a very big one, so they don't have any other brands or household-brand than Alpro as far as I know. So Alpro is getting very rich because of me. :D

I use them as both, sometimes with almond milk pancakes, sometimes just to enjoy the sweet taste of almonds. It doesn't really matter to me.
