Mango Lassi

Mango lassi is a popular Indian drink made with mangoes, yogurt, milk, and sugar. It's a refreshing and cooling drink perfect for hot summer days.

I first discovered mango lassi during a trip to India. I was exploring the bustling streets of Mumbai when I stumbled upon a small food vendor selling mango lassi. I decided to give it a try, and I was instantly hooked. The sweet and creamy taste was unlike anything I had ever tasted before. I knew I had to learn how to make it myself, and I've been making it ever since.

Ingredients

• 2 ripe mangoes, peeled and diced
• 1 cup plain yogurt
• 1/2 cup milk
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
• Ice cubes

Cooking Instructions

1. In a blender, combine the diced mangoes, yogurt, milk, sugar, and ground cardamom. Blend until smooth.
2. Add a handful of ice cubes to the blender and blend again until the ice is crushed and the mixture is frothy.
3. Pour the mango lassi into glasses and serve immediately.

Serving Suggestions

Mango lassi is best served chilled. It's a great drink to serve at parties or gatherings, especially if you're looking for something non-alcoholic. It also pairs well with spicy Indian dishes, as the sweetness helps to balance out the heat. Alternatively, you can enjoy it as a refreshing drink on its own.
