Ingredients

  • 200 ml – 6 ¾ oz natural yoghurt – use Greek yoghurt for a thicker texture
  • 200 ml – 6 ¾ oz milk
  • 80 g – 2.7 oz sugar
  • 3 gelatine sheets – 6 g – 0.2 oz OR 2 tsp gelatine powder
  • 5 kaffir lime leaves – roughly shredded
  • honey – to serve

Instructions

  1. Place the milk, sugar, and kaffir lime leaves in a saucepan over low heat. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside for 30 minutes to allow the kaffir lime flavour to infuse.

  2. Return the pan to low heat and bring to a gentle simmer, then remove from the heat. Meanwhile, soak the gelatine sheets in a bowl of cold water until softened. Squeeze out the excess water.
  3. Whisk the gelatine into the milk mixture until fully dissolved.
  4. Whisk in the yoghurt until well incorporated.
  5. Strain into a jug and discard the lime leaves.
  6. Pour into shooter glasses and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set.
  7. Serve with a drizzle of honey.
