We loved all slight variations of Ayran that we tried in Turkey, but this is much different than any of those. I used less cumin (~1 tsp) and it was still a really strong flavor. A more authentic version seems to be simply equal amounts water and yogurt with a bit of lemon and salt to taste.

I have no idea if it tastes like the real thing but it does taste good. The cumin is not overly intrusive and the lemon gives a nice refreshing citrus touch.
