Bigi's Doogh in Reseda
Doogh is the national beverage of Afghanistan and the quintessential companion to charcoal kabobs. Cultured whole-milk yogurt is churned with cold filtered water, dried wild mountain mint, a hint of sea salt, and finely grated cucumber. Chilled until ice-cold. Tart, savory, and cooling, it balances the rich smoke and spice of our grilled meats perfectly.
