Chef’s Notes-Korean Yogurt Soju Delight
- Add a slice of lemon, lime, or even a few fresh berries to the rim of the glass for an extra touch of freshness and visual appeal.
- Don’t be afraid to experiment with flavored sojus and yogurt drinks. For instance, a mango yogurt drink with a tropical-flavored soju can create a fruity twist.
- This cocktail is ideal for pairing with spicy Korean dishes like kimchi or bulgogi. The tangy yogurt and fizzy soda balance well with bold flavors.
- For the best taste, make sure your soju and yogurt drink are well-chilled before mixing. This will keep the drink refreshingly cool without needing to add too much ice.
- If you prefer a less sweet drink, use a diet or sugar-free lemon-lime soda, or reduce the amount of fruit-flavored yogurt.
