Wouldn't it be simpler and cheaper to just add your own maple syrup 
to your own yogurt?

I make a quart or more of yogurt every few days (mixing some into the 
dogs' kibble and my breakfast cereal, we go through it fast).  If I'm 
eating yogurt as the centerpiece of the dish, I frequently mix in a 
dribble of honey or maple syrup -- it doesn't take much -- and this 
has been one of my favorite flavor combinations for years.

Bringing this back vaguely on-topic, is there any evidence of anybody 
in medieval Europe intentionally making or using yogurt?
