Homemade Drinks
Strawberry Soya Milk
The weather has been really hot lately. The haze has made a return and the PSI has been hovering within the moderate to unhealthy range. The forest fires in Indonesia have caused the pollution and it doesn’t seem to be clearing anytime soon.
To combat the heat I have been making different drinks at home for the kids. They love drinking soya milk and I’ve recently started making our own at home.
Black Soya Milk
I soak the organic soya beans over night before blending them to a fine pulp. After blending water is added to the mixture and boiled in a pot before it is strained.
Freshly made soya bean milk chilling in the fridge
It takes roughly an hour for the whole process but it’s well worth the effort as you get soya bean milk which is preservative and chemical free. You can also adjust the level of sweetness and even have the drink sugar free.
You don’t really need to have a soyabean milk maker . All that is needed is a blender and a muslin bag and you have all the equipment that you need to make soyabean milk.
Have you made any homemade drinks lately?

Nothing as adventurous as this! Did try the soy milk once, but it was truly undelicious…though I did suspect perhaps the beans were not of good quality in the first place… YAM xx

Sorry about the haze, but the drinks look great. Your the first person I know who makes their own soy milk.How interesting.

Oh yes, homemade drinks are the best. Not to mention you know exactly what they contain and what are you feeding your children.
Have a great day!

We make smoothies and slushies at home, when we have the ingredients.

I really want to make home made drinks for our son. Gotta find organic soybean seeds first or maybe I’ll try the cashew nut milk.

I make jun, kombucha and kefir water all the time. They are a hit at my house.

looks soo refreshing! And better than the store-bought ones. I would probably try to come up with my own soya drink too

I think it is still better to do your own drinks at home rather than buying the ready made sold in the market.

Looks very easy to make. I hope to try soon.

Those drinks look so yummy! Does homemade kahlua and homemade wine count? 😉
As a side note – how ironic! I must click the grapes to prove I’m human! LOL!

@Stacy,
Homemade Kahlua certainly counts!!. Thanks for stopping by this week. I too had to click on the Grapes to prove that I am human 🙂
