What is Köfteci Yusuf ayran?

Köfteci Yusuf ayran is the Turkish restaurant’s take on ayran, a traditional drink made by whisking yogurt with water and salt. It is usually pourable, sometimes lightly foamy, with a cool, tangy and savoury taste. In Turkey, ayran is a familiar partner for köfte, kebabs and other grilled foods, and is especially welcome with a meal on a warm day. It can also be enjoyed on its own as a refreshing alternative to a sweet drink.

Yogurt gives it some protein, while the drink remains relatively light: 100 g provides 38 calories and 2.2 g of protein. Its saltiness works well alongside richly seasoned food. For a lighter meal, pair it with a salad or vegetable dishes; if you are watching your salt intake, keep the portion in mind alongside the rest of your meal.
