Ingredients
- 2 cups full fat yogurt
- 2 1/2 cups cold water
- 2 teaspoons dry mint
- 1/2 - 1 teaspoon salt, per preference
- Ice cubes, when serving
- Fresh mint, when serving
Instructions
- Pour the 2 cups full fat yogurt in a jug (if your jug has a wide enough mouth, you can mix it directly inside. Otherwise use a bowl).
- Whisk the yogurt to smooth out any lumps.
- Add half the 2 1/2 cups cold water and whisk.
- Add the rest of the water, 2 teaspoons dry mint, and 1/2 - 1 teaspoon salt, per preference and whisk well until combined. Taste and adjust the water and salt.
- Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Add Ice cubes if serving right way.
- Garnish with Fresh mint leaves and enjoy!
Notes
- Plain yogurt or Greek yogurt can be used for this recipe
- The mint is optional - this drink is also served plain without any mint (for anyone who isn't a mint fan!)
- If you're going to add ice cubes and have the drink last a while, make sure you make it on the thicker side so that it doesn't end up being too watery when the ice melts
