What is Ayran with turmeric?

Ayran with turmeric is a variation on ayran, the savoury drink made by thinning yoghurt with water and usually adding salt. Turmeric gives it a golden colour and a gentle, earthy spice, while the yoghurt’s tang keeps the flavour refreshing rather than heavy. Its consistency is pourable, sometimes lightly frothy.

In Turkey, ayran is commonly served cold alongside meals, especially in warm weather; this turmeric version also works as a cooling drink with spiced or grilled food. It offers some protein from the yoghurt, with much of its volume coming from water. Serve it well chilled, or adjust the thickness with a little more water to suit your taste.
