Substitutions

Best Match

Plain Low-Fat Yogurt + Lime Zest/Juice

1:1

Best for replicating flavor and texture with controlled sweetness.

Greek Yogurt (Low-Fat)

1:1

Thicker, higher protein, good for savory applications, may need thinning.

Skyr (Icelandic Yogurt)

1:1

Very thick and high protein, similar to Greek yogurt, slightly milder.

Coconut Yogurt (Lime Flavored)

1:1

Dairy-free alternative, similar tang and creaminess, different fat profile.
