Description
Creamy, sweet and tart all at once, the lassi is a refreshing smoothie-style drink of yogurt, water and salt, flavored with spices such as cardamom and cumin. This street food staple is traditionally plain and salty, and served chilled, but many sweet, fruit-based versions have become popular in recent years, none more so than the mango lassi. It is often served alongside curries to cool the palate, or just whenever it’s needed to beat the heat.
