  2. Cook the strained soy milk over medium heat in a heavy-bottom pot to 100ºC (212ºF).
  3. Stir occasionally for about 20 minutes to prevent the coagulating and sticking. Skim the foam to get a clear pot of milk.
  4. Now, let cool the milk.
  5. Enjoy hot or cold soy milk.
  6. Refrigerate up to 3 days.
