How to store Soy Milk
In the fridge: 7 days
In the freezer: 60 days
In the pantry: 365 days
Refrigerate opened soy milk on a middle shelf, tightly sealed. Unopened shelf-stable cartons go in a cool dry pantry. Avoid the fridge door. Soy milk separates as proteins settle; shake well. Freezing changes texture; freeze only for cooking. Smell-check before use after day 7.
