Ayran is a cold yogurt beverage mixed with salt.[2] In addition to Turkey, where it is considered a national drink, ayran is found in Armenia (here called tan), Azerbaijan, Iran, the Balkans, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Lebanon, Syria, Cyprus and across the Caucasus.[3] [4] Its primary ingredients are water and yogurt, and ayran has been variously described as "a most refreshing drink made by mixing yogurt with iced water"[5] and "diluted yogurt".[6]
Ayran is served chilled and often as an accompaniment to grilled meat or rice,[7] especially during summer.[8] It is an acquired taste for Westerners due to its salty taste distinct from sugary beverages widespread in Europe and North America.
Similar beverages include the Iranian doogh,[9] but yogurt drinks are popular beyond the Middle East region—ayran has been likened by some to the South Asian lassi.[10]
History
Although less popular today,[citation needed] another traditional Turkish dairy beverage is fermented mare's milk, kumis.[6]
Contemporary ayran
Ayran is ubiquitous in Turkey and offered at almost all places that serve drinks, including fast-food restaurants, such as McDonald's and Burger King.[11]
The town of Susurluk is well known in Turkey for its ayran, which characteristically has a foamy head and creamy taste.[12][13]
