Ingredients
- 1 cup mango pulp or diced mangoes
- 1 cup yogurt
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 tbsp sugar or honey
- A few ice cubes
Instructions
- Prepare the mango: If using fresh mangoes, peel and dice the mangoes into small pieces or use canned mango pulp.
- Combine ingredients: In a blender, add the mango pulp or diced mangoes, yogurt, milk, sugar or honey, and a few ice cubes.
- Blend well: Blend all the ingredients on high speed until smooth and creamy. Ensure the mixture is homogenous and the ice is crushed thoroughly.
- Adjust sweetness: Taste the lassi and add more sugar or honey if needed, then blend briefly again to mix.
- Serve chilled: Pour the mango lassi into glasses and serve immediately for the best refreshing experience.
Notes
- Use full-fat yogurt for a richer and creamier texture.
- Adjust the thickness by adding more milk for a thinner consistency or less for a thicker lassi.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute yogurt and milk with coconut or almond milk yogurt alternatives.
- Add a pinch of ground cardamom to enhance the flavor.
- Chill all ingredients before blending to avoid the need for too many ice cubes, preserving flavor.
