How To Make A Mango Lassi (4 Ingredients)
Description
Mango lassi is traditionally a refreshing Indian beverage made by blending ripe or frozen mango with yogurt and milk to achieve a creamy, drinkable consistency. Adding honey sweetens the blend naturally, and a pinch of cinnamon or cardamom provides a warm, fragrant note that complements the mango's sweetness. The frozen mango chills and thickens the lassi, eliminating the need for ice, which can dilute flavor.
The resulting drink is smooth, cool, and slightly tart from the yogurt, balancing the mango’s tropical sweetness. It serves well as a cooling accompaniment to spicy foods or as a standalone snack or breakfast drink.
The recipe can be adapted by chilling fresh mango and yogurt before blending if frozen mango is not used. Avoid adding ice cubes to maintain flavor concentration and texture. The lassi stores well refrigerated for up to two days in an airtight container but should be stirred before serving again.
Ingredients
- 1 cup Mango frozen
- ½ cup PLAIN yogurt can sub dairy-free, 120 g
- ½ cup milk 120 mL
- 1 Tbsp honey 30 g, or sugar
- Pinch cinnamon or cardamom
Instructions
- Blend all ingredients in a blender until smooth, adding a pinch of cinnamon or cardamom to taste.
Notes
- Using frozen mango negates the need for ice, keeping the lassi thick without watering it down.
- If using fresh mango, chill the mixture before serving for a cold drink.
- Adding ice is not recommended as it dilutes flavor and causes separation when refrigerated.
- Store leftovers in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, stirring before serving.
