Milk "recipes" are: https://patents.google.com/patent/US2550584A/en

So are fruit leather "recipes": https://patents.google.com/patent/AU2021200204B2/en

I'd imagine they had something like that. Probably have to do something special to not burn the ketchup while you heat it.

My favorite snack ever, since discontinued, are also covered by patent. Partially popped popcorn that used to be at Trader Joe's.

Calling almond milk a milk drink is a bad idea. It should be milk-like almond drink.

Almond milk has a etymology in English dating all the way back to 1381. https://www.oed.com/dictionary/almond-milk_n

Alternative milks were common in a time period before refrigeration and pasteurization. It just kept longer.

This patents a machine for pasteurization. The fact of pasteurization, getting milk to the target temperature, is not copyrightable. You would just have to use a different machine but you could still pasteurize.
