Vegan Turkish Yogurt Drink with mint garnish in clear glass

Vegan Turkish Frothy Yogurt Drink: "Ayran"


  • Author: Gonul
  • Total Time: 5 minutes

Ingredients

2 cups cold water (or more for lighter consistency)

4 tablespoon unsweetened dairy-free yogurt* 

2 tablespoon unsweetened dairy-free milk** 

1/2 teaspoon salt

Ice cubes as desired


Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, add all the yogurt and whisk for three minutes.
  2. Slowly add in the milk and whisk for another full minute.
  3. Gradually add water and keep whisking until it reaches the desired consistency and frothiness. I like mine a bit heavier so two cups of water with ice is perfect.
  4. Add salt, whisk a bit more. Garnish with mint and/or cucumbers.

Notes

*When we don’t have any homemade yogurt, I like to use the Forager (cashew) or Kite Hill (almond) brands. 

**Soy, cashew, or almond milk all work. Coconut and oat varieties may transfer too much of their own flavor so I wouldn’t recommend them in this recipe.

Bonus Tip: Although not as common, you can also enjoy this drink sweet by omitting salt and either adding a sweetener or using sweetened products.
