Mango lassi started as a simple yogurt drink in India, created to cool families down during hot summer days. When sweet, juicy mangoes were blended in, it transformed into the creamy, sunshine-filled treat we love today.
This mango lassi is one of my favorite drinks to serve on a hot day, or even to finish a spicy meal. It is so refreshing and sweet and the entire family will love it! You can easily adapt it to be dairy-free if needed by swapping the yogurt and milk for dairy-free alternatives.
For this recipe, you’ll need a blender. You can find my favorite blender to use by clicking here.
I love to top the mango lassi with different garnishes including:
- Cardamom
- Chopped Pistachios
- Diced or Sliced Mangoes
- Edible Flowers
To make the mango lassi:
In a blender, combine mango, yogurt, milk, sugar (or honey), and ground cardamom. Blend until smooth and creamy, then add a few ice cubes and blend again.
Taste and adjust sweetness or thickness as needed. Add more milk for a thinner drink or more mango or yogurt for a thicker one.
Pour the mango lassi into glasses and garnish with a sprinkle of cardamom, chopped nuts, or mango pieces if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy cold!
