MANGO LASSI

Mangoes…!!! The King of Fruits has many followers world over. Yeeeeaaahhh, they are delicious and more than half of Indians are passionate with them. Mango lassi are my very favourite drink to order at restaurants and likely one of my favourite beverage of all time. Punjabis and Maharashtrians love mangoes and have mango-based recipes in almost every course of the meal, right from the Aam ka Achaar made with raw mangoes to delicious, cool mango lassi, aam ras, mango shrikhand with juicy ripe ones. With the mango season upon us, now is the perfect time to enjoy mango lassi.  

This refreshing mango lassi recipe uses only few ingredients only. Cardamom gives the lassi a hint of spice and is ready just in 5 minutes. I love the creamy combination of sweet mangoes and tangy yogurt. The mango pulp imparts a rich golden colour as well as an irresistible aroma and flavour to this drink. You can make this drink even if mangoes are bot in season with frozen pulp. Enjoy making Mango Lassi recipe with detailed step-by-step photos and video below.

NOTES: * If you like strong mango flavour, you can add more mango puree.

              *If you are using canned mango pulp, then adjust the sugar because some canned pulp contains added sugar. So adjust accordingly.

             *If you are using chilled milk, mango pulp and yogurt then skip adding ice cubes. 

             *If do not have ice cubes, you can refrigerate ready lassi in refrigerator until ready to serve.
