Ayran is very popular across the Middle East, especially in Turkey. It can be served with any meal, or just for a quick snack drink. I have heard Ayran does wonders for a hangover.

Prep Time: 5 minutes

  • salt to taste

Mix yogurt and water in blender, until well blended. Add salt if desired. Start off with an 1/8 teaspoon salt and work your way up.

Yields: 4 servings
