yogurty

Like fermented milk

Yogurty describes something having qualities of yogurt—the taste, texture, or tangy smell: a yogurty smoothie, that yogurty sourness.

The word is informal and usually appears in food contexts, though it can describe anything reminiscent of yogurt: The sauce had a yogurty consistency.
