Yoghurt
What it is
Yoghurt is a dairy product made by fermenting milk with specific bacterial cultures. It is known for its creamy texture and tangy flavor, which can vary depending on the type of milk used and the fermentation process. In cocktails, yoghurt adds a unique creaminess and a slight tang, making it an interesting ingredient for both flavor and texture. It can be used in smoothies, creamy cocktails, or as a base for sauces and dressings that accompany drinks.

How it is made
Yoghurt is made by fermenting milk with live bacterial cultures, which convert lactose into lactic acid, thickening the milk and giving it a tangy flavor. The fermentation process can take several hours to days, depending on the desired thickness and taste.
History
The history of yoghurt dates back thousands of years, with origins believed to be in the Middle East or Central Asia. It has been a staple in many cultures, valued for its nutritional benefits and long shelf life. Yoghurt was traditionally made at home before the advent of commercial production.
In cocktails
Bartenders use yoghurt to create creamy cocktails, often blending it with fruits or spirits to enhance texture and flavor. It can also be used in layered drinks or as a garnish. When using yoghurt in cocktails, it's best to use plain, unsweetened varieties to avoid overpowering the drink's flavor.
Worth knowing
Yoghurt is often considered a probiotic food, which means it contains beneficial bacteria that can aid digestion.
