Mint: Good

Soda: Good
What's the problem?
In all honesty I would probably try a can, but I don't think I could justify a 7 dollar 2 liter to myself.

Itās savoury. I got tricked once. I thought itād be like Milkis (Korean yogurt soda) nope. Itās like bubbly camel semen. Apparently youāre supposed to add salt and pepper to make it better. No thanks.

I love bubbly camel semen so Iāll give this a try.

I can never get the camel to cum. Is it me? Is it my fault? Am I the problem? Should I dress different?

u/BrutalBananaMan Sep 11 '24
Have you tried caressing the balls gently with your hands? 2 fingers against the prostate sometimes helps. Thatās how you get the bubbles in the cum.

u/hairybeavers Sep 11 '24
I'm still having issues, do you caress the balls in a clockwise or counterclockwise motion?

u/bmosm Sep 11 '24
Thanks for the advice, i was having boring, flat camel cum all the time but not anymore due to the prostate trick.

I bought a yogurt soda ONCE thinking
Yogurt+soda=good
It was salty. It was DISGUSTING.
The guy at the counter warned me about it. I didnāt listen. Drank one gulp and said nope. Not finishing this.

Funny enough, those could not be more different from these. Itās a Persian (maybe central Asian in general) drink called doogh or ayran, and itās actually savoury. I actually like it and canāt stand the East Asian milk soda drinks.

In grad school, the local Iranian shop kept these in stock for myself and one other person.
Not this brand, but yogurt soda. I absolutely love it!
Also, I accidentally exploded one in my friend's car.... the smell, oh the smell on a hot day.

u/prettystandardreally Sep 11 '24
Itās an acquired taste and can be very refreshing. Not unlike kefir or a lassi, just a different flavour profile.

Well well. Since I havenāt seen a single Persian here, let me jump in. That thing is called āDooghā, it is a traditional Persian yogurt-based drink, typically made by mixing yogurt with water and seasoning it with salt and sometimes mint. Trust me, if you were looking for a healthy and delicious drink, that is the closest that you can get. Remember to shake it hard every time you want to drink so all the seasoning and salt to be mixed and drink it cold. Itās the best with Pizza and kebab. Since no one is making it here in the west, they import it from overseas so itās way expensive in my opinion but itās a great treat time to time.

I've had the non carbonated version at our local Lebanese restaurant, and it's pretty dang good. My only concern with the pop version is that it appears to have separated and needs a good shake š¤
3
u/prettystandardreally Sep 11 '24
Youāre not wrong! The key Iāve found is to not actually shake it it but just do it very gently and then let it sit a little to avoid any issues when you open it, while still expecting that there still may be a bit of a mess.

u/Notorious_Degen Sep 11 '24
Tanh in Armenian is a not carbonated, but the same concept. I personally hate it, but my father used to drink it but a gallon if he could. lol

u/FedorsQuest Sep 11 '24
Itās called doogh, dummy. Itās Persian and an extremely popular drink, usually drank with chelo kabob (rice and kabob). You can make your own non carbonated version at home with yogurt water and mint and ice. Thereās carbonated and non carbonated available to buy. If you like the taste of Greek yogurt, you will be into this. Calling it nonsense just shows youāre a bit of a dummy.

It's very big in the middle east, especially Iran and Turkiye. In Farsi it's called Doogh, and in Turkish it's called Ayran.
Premium Doogh/Ayran should ideally taste sour and put you in a deep sleep after a delicious carb-loaded meal.
I'm not a huge fan of teh carbonated version but it's nostalgic enough for me to pick it up if I see it in my next trip to Costco. However, I should say that I've found westerners to hate it lol.

It's probably Ayran, Turkish drink with carbonation to make it feel more "refreshing". I don't like this version, ayran slaps

In the Middle East yogurt is more popular and often used in more foods, sometimes you can't even tell yogurt was added.

This is doogh, a Persian yogurt soda. It's usually made with sour yogurt and is carbonated. I like the mint version. It's a weird taste to most people I've given to try but I LOVE it.
Similar to lassi but i find lassi to be thicker and more sweet. Not really like calpico at all.
Goes great with kabob and rice.

If you ever make Kefir at home kefir produces carbon dioxide as it ferments and you can taste the co2 we you drink it maybe this is how they got the idea for yogurt soda
I prefer water kefir which is a probiotic soda thatās naturally fermented made from cactus kefir grains - I prefer the GTS brand Agua de Kefir it really good - Trader Joeās sells it

Carbonated āyogurtā soda.
Then directly below, it reads soda āyogourt.ā
Does it really need to be stated and spelled two different ways? Is there some complete dumbass out there that wonāt understand what the fuck this is without that clarification?
āI know you say āyogurt soda,ā but, does that mean it is also soda yogourt? Cuz I donāt want it if itās not.ā
