Ingredients

  • 1.5 cup strawberries fresh or frozen
  • 1 cup PLAIN yogurt whole milk yogurt, cold
  • 1/2 cup milk cold, or water to adjust consistency
  • 4 teaspoon sugar adjust to taste
  • 1 pinch Cardamom powder (Elaichi) optional

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Wash the strawberries and dry them wth a towel paper. Then chop the top green leafy part and cut them into pieces. (You can also use frozen strawberries)
  2. Add all the ingredients - strawberries, yogurt, milk, sugar, and cardamom powder - to a blender.
  3. Blend them until it becomes frothy. Adjust the consistency to your taste by adding additional milk or water.
  4. Pour lassi in serving glasses. Garnish it with strawberry pieces and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Strawberries: You can use fresh or frozen strawberries. Try not to pick light-colored, soft, or black spot strawberries. If you are planning ahead keep the strawberries in the refrigerator so they are cold for the lassi. 
  • Yogurt: If using greek yogurt, use 3/4 cup of greek yogurt and add more milk or water to adjust the consistency according to your taste. 
  • Vegan: Use almond milk yogurt and almond milk to make it vegan.
  • Consistency: You can adjust the consistency of the lassi by adding cold milk or water. You can add a few ice cubes to the lassi to cool it down.
  • Storing: This lassi can be refrigerated for up to a day. I prefer to make it just before serving. It takes only a minute to get ready once you have the ingredients prepared.
  • Serving: You can also serve this lassi topped with a scoop of vanilla or strawberry ice cream to make it a dessert. You can also garnish with some saffron strands.
