Recipe

If you like the recipe, Please Share it!

I love this La Michoacana Yogurt, a

creamy yogurt mixed with fruits and
nuts to give the best experience
possible.

Last Monday, I was scrolling through

TikTok until I found a girl talking
about this La Michoacana Yogurt
and she made a copycat recipe
based on it. From the short video,
the yogurt looked so gorgeous and
delicious as well. So, I did a little bit
of research and found out that it’s a
famous yogurt served at La
Michoacana, an assortment of
Mexican ice cream parlors. Since it
is so hot outside, I decided to make
it too.

I copied the same recipe the girl

made, and the taste was amazing—
creamy and refreshing, especially if
you serve it cold as I did. The yogurt
is usually served with some nuts on
top, but I preferred to add some
cherries instead, For the yogurt, I
used Greek yogurt, while the classic
La Michoacana Yogurt is made with
plain natural yogurt. So, it’s up to
you to choose what you have on
hand or what you love the most.
