Mango Lassi



A refreshing drink made with yogurt and mango.
Mango Lassi is most commonly found in India and Pakistan. One glass of mango lassi on a summer day is a bliss. However , I am sure many of you would agree , it tastes the best if made of Indian mangoes rather than these mexican mangoes or other types we find here in US. Nothing like Indian mangoes.

Ingredients :

  • Yogurt - 3 cups
  • Ripe Mango Pieces - 1 1/2 cup
  • Sugar - to taste
  • Crushed Ice - 1/4 cup
  • Crushed or sliced Pistacios - for garnishing

Directions :

  • Put the yogurt, sugar and mangoes in a blender and blend till smooth.
  • Put crushed ice in a serving glass , and pour lassi over it.
  • Garnish with pistachios.

This recipe will make 4 cups of lassi.

Variation :

  • Some people like to add milk to it. Take 1/2 cup milk and while blending yogurt and mongoes, add milk little by little till you reach the required consistency.
