"Silk" milk = a soy milk or a coconut milk?!


Question: "Silk" milk = a soy milk or a coconut milk?
Is "silk" a type of soy milk brand or coconut milk?

It does not taste anything like coconut. Had it at a friend's place, because it's what her husband drinks who is lactose-intolerant.

I'm vegetarian.

Silk is just brand name - you can see that they have that circled r above the name - that means it is registered trademark.
If it says soy milk than it comes from soybeans..
Soy milk (also called soya milk, soymilk, soybean milk, or soy juice) and sometimes referred to as soy drink/beverage is a beverage made from soybeans. A stable emulsion of oil, water, and protein, it is produced by soaking dry soybeans and grinding them with water. Soy milk contains about the same proportion of protein as cow's milk: around 3.5%; also 2% fat, 2.9% carbohydrate, and 0.5% ash. Soy milk can be made at home with traditional kitchen tools or with a soy milk machine.

The coagulated protein from soy milk can be made into tofu, just as dairy milk can be made into cheese.
