🛒 Ingredients

5 servings

5
  • 1 litre (4 cups) whole milk
  • 1 sachet flavored powdered drink mix (e.g. Tang, any flavor)
  • 1 small cup plain natural yogurt (about ½ cup / 125 g)
  • Sugar to taste (optional)

Directions

  1. 1

    Pour the milk into a large jar or pitcher at room temperature. Add the plain yogurt and stir gently until fully combined.

  2. 2

    Cover the jar with a clean cloth or lid and leave to ferment at room temperature for 12 hours. A warm spot in your kitchen works best.

  3. 3

    Once fermented, scoop out one small cup of the yogurt and store it in the fridge — this will be your starter culture for the next batch.

  4. 4

    Stir the flavored drink mix powder into the remaining yogurt until completely dissolved and evenly combined.

  5. 5

    Pour into serving cups or small jars and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving chilled.

💡 Chef's Tip

Try different flavors of drink mix — strawberry, mango, lemon — each time you make this recipe for endless variety. Whole milk gives the creamiest result.
