Lassi is a traditional yoghurt based drink from India. It is a great drink to have during the hot summer months. Lassi can be made plain by blending yoghurt with some cream, sugar and dry fruits or it can be flavoured with different fruits and berries.
During summer, when mangoes are in season, why not make Mango Lassi. Everything goes together in the blender and you have a thick yoghurt shake ready.
