It only takes 4 ingredients to make this delicious and refreshing drink. A healthy alternative to a strawberry milkshake!

Lassi is a sweet, yogurt based Indian drink that is easy to make and is outright delicious. With weather warming up , here is one of my absolute favourite summer drink with a twist. I am sure it is a healthier substitute to strawberry milkshake.Sweetness of strawberry and coolness of yogurt makes this dish heavenly. Simple blend of few ingredients and you are done with the dessert for the day.Mangi Lassi is a refreshing, cold beverage originating from India.And i made a  twist to that an made this. Actually Lassi is a yogurt-based drink blended with a bit of sugar and ice, which is great to have in summers. I would say a lassi is more of a healthier, lighter version of a milkshake.

I dipped my strawberries in honey and decorated in the glass so it was more tastier!

Sweetness of mango and coolness of yogurt makes this dish heavenly. Simple blend of few ingredients and you are done with the dessert for the day. Mango Lassi is a refreshing, cold beverage originating from India. Actually Lassi is a yogurt-based drink blended with a bit of sugar and ice, which is great to have in summers. I would say a lassi is more of a healthier, lighter version of a milkshake.

Everyone has his or her own way to prepare mango lassi. This is my own rich way of doing this. You can skip sour cream if the yogurt is sour but mostly it is not. You can just beat the mango pulp, sugar, yogurt and cardamom in a blender. But if you wanted to make it rich and creamy :), try this way!!!! Trust me 🙂 its going to a hit in your family! Even the pulp is equally good; you can try the alphonso pulp and do this 🙂

Mango lassi is everything you want right now? 😉 am i right ?
