Hey Scotty,
You can absolutely use soy milk, i only use rice, because my recipes are free of the 8 major allergens and gluten. You can also use almond milk, if you like that, I believe the almond milk is a little thicker than the soy and rice milks. Try other fruits with the simple syrup, you can also make a killer lemonade with the simple syrup...
