Mango Lassi is a popular Indian drink combining the sweetness of ripe mangoes with the tangy flavour of yoghurt. This refreshing and creamy treat is quick to prepare and perfect for summer.
2 cups chopped mangoes (Alphonso or any sweet variety) 4-5 tbsp sugar or honey (optional) 2 cups cold or chilled yoghurt 2-3 tbsp light cream or malai (optional) 4-5 ice cubes
Rinse, peel, and chop the mangoes into small pieces.
Blend the chopped mangoes with sugar or honey and your choice of cardamom powder, saffron, or rose water.
Add chilled yoghurt and light cream to the mango puree.
Add ice cubes to the mixture if desired. Blend until all ingredients are smoothly combined and the mixture is creamy.
Pour the mango lassi into glasses and serve immediately, garnished with mint leaves or nuts if desired.
