I'm not against that definition, but neither soybeans nor almonds produce any 'milk-like plant juices.'

  Soybean, almond, rice, tiger nut... milks are basically the product and some extra water, and the result is milk-like.

    But that's not a juice then. It's plant solids dissolved/emulsified in water. "Juice" would mean that the liquid itself came from the plant.

  ... because they produce milk?

  Here's a macronutrient comparison: 1 cup of dairy milk: Calories: 149 Protein: 8 grams Fat: 8 grams Carbohydrates: 12 grams Fiber: 0 grams Sugar: 12 grams 1 cup of Almond Milk: Calories: 40 Protein: 1 gram Fat: 3 grams Carbohydrates: 2 grams Fiber: 1 gram Sugar: 0 grams 1 cup of soy milk: Calories: 100 Protein: 7 grams Fat: 4 grams Carbohydrates: 8 grams Fiber: 1 gram Sugar: 6 grams Soy milk is not too far off. Almond milk seems to be more diluted and has no simple sugars, so it might be the outlier here. Still has a decent amount of fat, more than I expected, but half as much isn't going to satisfy some people.
