Soy Milk Tier List

Trader Joe’s

A good, neutral taste and it froths well. While not particularly important, it also surprisingly contains literally no additives.

ALDI

Decent tasting and froths well.

Silk

Tastes good. It used to froth well, but at some point in 2025 they changed their recipe and it no longer froths at all. It’s disappointing that this is the biggest soy milk brand in the US.

Costco

Doesn’t froth well, and tastes pretty bad. It’s very disappointing that this is the best Costco can do considering their reputation.

Bettergoods

Tastes terrible but froths well.

There’s an idea idea that soy milk has to contain added emulsifiers such as guar or locust bean gum in order to froth well, but soy already contains natural emulsifiers. In reality, unless the maker is adding things especially for frothability, concentration is what matters most.
