Orange Yogurt with Tajin

Orange Yogurt with Tajin

Greek yogurt
honey
orange segments
chamoy
tajin

Oranges are my ultimate favorite fruit. I love how this fruit tastes and feels, that it can be used in both savory and sweet dishes, that the smell of it perks me up on my lowest of days. I had a lot of it growing up—fresh and refrigerated then eaten on its own or dipped in rock salt, as ice candy (a Filipino treat where the juice and some pulp is frozen in thin, long, clear baggies), popsicles, granitas, smoothies, etc.

Lately, I’ve been loving the combination of Greek yogurt, honey, orange segments as an after dinner treat. I love how it’s both cooling and warming, how the flavors dance on my tongue and make it fizzle. It’s like a thick, healthier, grown up version of orange creamsicle ice cream with a twist. It’s been a fantastic pick me up during this very exhausting week. (Tomorrow is my directorial debut performance with my professional soprano-alto choir. I’m super excited and also super tired.)

The ingredients are above. No measurements or proper recipe because I grew up in a Filipino household where that wasn’t a thing unless you’re baking. I’m pretty proud of that. :) All you need to do is to combine the Greek yogurt with honey plus some orange juice if you wish, plop the orange segments on top, drizzle with chamoy, and sprinkle with tajin.

Enjoy!
