Names

In some parts of China, the term 豆浆 dòujiāng (lit. "bean broth ") is used for the traditional watery beverage produced as an intermediate product in the production of tofu, while store-bought products designed to imitate the flavor and consistency of dairy milk (and may contain a mixture of dairy and soy), are more often known as 豆奶 dòunǎi ("bean milk").

In other countries, there are sometimes legal impediments to the equivalents of the name "soy milk". In such jurisdictions, the manufacturers of plant milks typically label their products the equivalent of "soy beverage" or "soy drink".
