Even the best intentioned store-bought yogurts come laden with cane sugar leaving an artificial tang on your tongue best likened to a kid’s toothpaste. As with anything made at home, your advantage lies in the ingredients (or the lack of ingredients) you have at your disposal. Below, we walk you through a simple step-by-step to making your own strawberry whole milk yogurt. You can sweeten with honey, maple syrup, or sugar. You can snazz it up with lemon juice or fresh mint leaves. This homemade yogurt makes the perfect coda to a summer’s lunch and is a welcome reprieve from the endless parade of vacation ice creams.
