Mango Lassi

This Indian beverage is made with a delicious combination of mangoes, yogurt and a touch of mint. The perfect accompaniment to an Indian meal.


Serves 2

Ingredients

2 ripe mangoes, peeled and chopped (approx. 2 cups)
1 cup natural yogurt
3 tablespoons sugar (adjust to taste)
Ice cubes (as needed)

Method

  1. Blend the mangoes, yogurt, and sugar in the blender until smooth and creamy
  2. Add the ice cubes, if desired.
  3. Pour into glasses. Garnish with mint sprigs and serve chilled.

Notes & Tips

The sugar can be adjusted to taste and it depends on the taste of the mangoes and yogurt.

If fresh mangoes are not in season, you can use tinned Indian Alphonso mango puree. Replace the 2 ripe mangoes with 2 cups of mango puree in this recipe.
