Creamy and tangy Mango Lassi is a classic summer treat, that’s easy to make too!
Ingredients:
- 400 g fresh mango about 3 – 4 mangoes, depending on the size. Preferably chilled. Frozen is fine too.
- 200 – 250 g full fat yogurt chilled (greek yogurt is fine too).
- ¼ tsp ground cardamom adjust to your taste
- ¼ tsp sea salt I use ½ tsp because I like this drink to be a touch salty
- Sugar to taste
- Water or milk to dilute I prefer water
Instructions:
-
Peel and cut the mangoes into chunks.
-
Place the mango chunks and yogurt in a blender, and blend until smooth. Depending on your blender, you may need to blend the mango chunks first before adding the yogurt.
-
Add the cardamom and salt, and about 2 tbsp sugar, and blend again.
-
Taste and add more sugar to taste.
-
Add enough water to dilute the mixture into a pourable but thick consistency (thinner than a smoothie).
-
Refrigerate the mango lassi until chilled.
-
Serve as is, or with a sprinkle of cardamom on top.
