Mango Lassi

Lassi is a yogurt-based delicious and refreshing drink. It is prepared in two ways - sweet and salty. On the other hand, mango is the King of all the fruits and the combo of mango and lassi is heavenly. When we were kids, my Mom used to make aamras, mango lassi or mango milkshake almost everyday for us in summer. After a long day at school, that smooth and rich drink felt divine. And thus began my love for mangoes. Do try this and I'm sure you will fall in love with this simple drink. 

Ingredients:-
  • 1 cup mango (peeled & diced)
  • 1 cup yogurt
  • ½ cup milk
  • 3 tbsp sugar
  • 8 - 10 ice cubes
Method:-
  • Combine all the ingredients in a blender. 
  • Blend it well till smooth.
  • Pour into glasses.
  • Top with a few mango cubes.
  • Serve chilled.
Notes:-
  • You may substitute chopped mangoes with mango pulp or mango puree
  • You fresh curd for best results, but if you find the yogurt is a bit sour, add some more milk and sugar to the lassi.
  • You may substitute any fruit instead of mangoes as per your liking for ex. strawberries, oranges or pineapples.
  • You may omit the fruit and make plain lassi or add 2 tbsp of rose syrup or roohafza or nutella to the lassi.

  3. That is a super cool lassi, Nilu - Looks simple and perfect for summer! Also adding roohafza is a interesting idea, I have always loved the taste of this. I must try.

    A tip, the lassi comes pretty good, even by adding Tropicana or Harvest Mango juices, when there is no Mango available in super market - HeHe, crazy me!
