Mango Lassi
Mango Lassi blends ripe mangoes, yogurt, and sugar into a creamy, smooth beverage. The combination produces a chilled drink with a balance of sweetness and tanginess, complemented optionally by a hint of cardamom spice. Its refreshing texture makes it a pleasant choice for warm weather or as a soothing accompaniment to meals.
Ingredients
- 2 cups Mango chunks (fresh or frozen, or 1 cup mango puree)
- 2 cups PLAIN yogurt 500g
- 4 tablespoons white sugar (or honey)
- 1 cup ice
To serve:
- Pinch ground cardamom optional
Instructions
- Add the mango chunks (or puree), yogurt, sugar, and ice to a blender.
- Process until smooth and frothy.
- Serve topped with a pinch of cardamom and enjoy.
Notes
- Frozen mango results in a thicker, colder lassi, while fresh mango or puree yields a thinner drink.
- If the yogurt is too thick, thin the lassi with a little water or milk to reach your desired consistency.
- Ground cardamom is optional but adds a traditional flavor note.
- Use coconut or almond milk yogurt to make this lassi suitable for non-dairy diets.
