Mango Lassi

         Another nourishing, soothing and cooling drink for the hot weather. Lassi is a drink made with yogurt and sugar and you can add any kind of fruits or spices to it according to your taste to make different Lassis. The sweet and sour combination is a twist to the ordinary milkshakes. Here I have prepared it using ripe seasonal mangoes and yogurt. A healthy and nourishing drink, rich in vitamins, good for children and adults alike. The addition of ginger juice make it more digestive and flavourful. Enjoy this delicious drink garnished with a sprinkle of cinnamon or cardamom powder.
