IngredientsPlace the milk in a saucepan and bring to a slow simmer. Add the lemon juice and continue simmering until the milk separates.
Strain through cheesecloth, gently squeezing out any excess water.
Place the mixture in a blender, add the yoghurt, rose-water and 4 T honey and blend until incorporated.
