Doogh (Persian Yogurt Drink)

I first had this Iranian drink called doogh at my in-laws’ house and I’d go as far as saying it’s 3052% more refreshing than most other beverages. Doogh is like a mint-yogurt frappé.

It’s a nice way to use up a little extra mint from the garden or from another recipe, or to serve before or after a heavy dinner since it’s meant to aid in digestion (yogurt + mint).
