Overall Rating: 4/5
Summary: This is definitely a milk for lovers of the natural soybean flavour. Stay away if you don't match this description. I actually didn't like it after the first 2 gulps, but it grew on me! It has a thin texture but smoothly creams coffees and teas quite nicely. Alone, it's clean and refreshing and would go well with a very sweet dessert, like cookies, or sweetened cereals.

I'd buy this again in a second because I have cereal almost daily. This soy milk has super clean ingredients that you needn't worry over. The nutritional profile is fantastic -- it's low-calorie, has healthy fats, no cholesterol, is low in sodium *and* has no added sugars. This is a great milk for diabetics and those with a weight loss goal.
My favourite part of product websites is the recipe section for specific products! E.g. check out Natura's recipe suggestions -- Creamy squash apple soup, Fettuccni Alfredo with soya sauce, Curried carrot soup.
