Can't comment on the drinking yoghurts, haven't tried them yet, though have tropical mango and wildberries in the cupboard to try soon.

Can report back on the Boysenberry though. It is gorgeous. We all had a midnight snack, whoopsied tesco strawberries with the yoghurt and loved it. Eldest says his favourite so far.

Had it on weetabix for breakfast, so it isn't gonna last long.:D Its very much a 'fruits of the forest' type flavour so it will be interesting to see how there actual fruits of the forest pack differs. Will definitely order it next time.

Popped into lakeland and now have an easiyo. I have tried 1l skimmed uht, 4 tbs of milk powder, 2 tbs of sainsbury natural yoghurt.

I am keeping my fingers crossed.

Yoghurt update: Well its turned into yoghurt, a little runny but nice!

Next adventures in yogs: goats milk uht or coconut yoghurt and I may actually strain the next batch through a coffee filter.

Well done Is

My low-calorie lemon bargain is not too successful so far - I resorted to adding rather a lot of honey to yesterday's portion. That stuff is sour-sharp in spades :eek:

OMG! £1 for an easiyo - total bargain.

I have my next batch of yog on the go. Skimmed UHT, 3tbs powder milk, 2 tbs greek yog. Then I might filter it tomorrow.

Also have some in the freezer with some blueberries mixed in. Yum!

Hi there - well done, that was a real bargain! May I ask - how much milk did you use? And did it turn out thick like Greek yogurt or like " normal " consistency?

I used just under a litre of UHT semi skimmed milk (couldn't fit it all into the container) the consistancy was very thick, I think i'll only do half measure next time though cos I'm the only one eating it at the moment.

I got two Easiyo flasks and containers off Freecycle. "Ask and ye shall receive".

I think lots of people are gung ho with them in the beginning and then they get stuck to the back of the cupboard.

My favourite is the strawberry, the greek one, and the custard one tastes nice, but the texture it indescribable. Very strange.
