Abstract
The present invention provides a soybean milk or milk drink which is highly enriched with calcium and which has excellent taste and storage stability. The soybean milk or milk drink is enriched with calcium by adding a hardly soluble calcium compound thereto, and by adding colloidal microcrystalline cellulose and low-strength agar in such amounts as not to exceed a viscosity of 40 cp, to thereby stabilize the calcium in the soybean milk or milk drink.
