Lassi is for your soul! When there are times you feel low, then this is something that for sure, will make you high! Curds or Yogurt is something that's so very common at our home. I guess it is so in every Indian household! Growing up, there was never a meal without curds or perugu to complete the meal! And more so it was buttermilk or at times Lassi.
Lassi made with thick curds is a pure indulgence. All you need is a cup of thick curds and a spoon of sugar. And you are all set for a treat! There was once a time when we used to enjoy this delicious drink every afternoon in the office. My colleagues and I used to compete with each other in making the best lassi.
And everybody's used to be tasty. Whenever I make it at home, hubby dear never fails to mention that big glasses of lassi they used to get in Delhi! He says there can't be made a better way, anywhere else. Still, as I have tasted that, my homemade lassi is always the best!
If you are looking for other summer drinks, you can try this Jal Jeera.
If you are fond of other chocolate drinks, then this Surati Cold Cocoa will be ideal!
When mangoes are in abundance, this is another way to enjoy the luscious mangoes in a glass of lassi!
Ingredients Needed
Thick curds / yogurt - 1 cup
Ripe mango - 1
Sugar - 1 tsp (opt)
