Instructions

  1. Place the yogurt, salt and mint in a large bowl and whisk until combined.
  2. Gradually add water and whisk at the same time to make sure all is incorporated.
  3. Taste and add more salt if needed.
  4. Fill glasses which ice cubes and pour the ayran over ice. Serve cold.

Notes

  • It's best to use whole milk yogurt for this recipe. Homemade yogurt would work too. 
  • Use a blender to make ayran instead of a bowl and a whisk. Simply put all the ingredients in a blender and blend until fully combined. 
  • You can make this drink up to 4 hours in advance. Make sure to mix it well again before serving since it might separate.
