Lassi is the quintessential summer drink of India and this creamy beverage only gets elevated with the inclusion of mint or pudina in the mix. This drink, because of the yoghurt and mint, helps cool down your body, making it perfect for the summer months. Here's a recipe for you to try:
1 cup plain yoghurt (preferably chilled) 1/2 cup of fresh mint leaves 1-2 tablespoons sugar or honey 1/4 teaspoon roasted cumin powder A pinch of salt Ice cubes Fresh mint leaves for garnish
In a blender, combine the plain yoghurt, fresh mint leaves, sugar or honey, roasted cumin powder, and a pinch of salt.
Blend until smooth and frothy. If you prefer a colder lassi, you can add some ice cubes to the blender and blend again until well combined.
Taste and adjust the sweetness according to your preference by adding more sugar or honey if needed. Pour the mint lassi into serving glasses.
Garnish with fresh mint leaves. Serve chilled and enjoy the refreshing minty goodness.
