Lassi, The Ancient Smoothie

This is a creamy, frothy, and refreshing fermented milk drink, often described as the “ancient smoothie”

Out of the blue, I got a request for a recipe for lassi. Now this is something we have practically everyday. And since it’s Mango season, it’s an excuse to have mangoes. Since then, I always include it in my cooking classes (whenever possible) and most of my guests are quite surprised as to how easy it is. I must say that it’s a big hit with everyone.

Lassi originated in the Punjab region of the Indian subcontinent. The word ‘lassi’ means yogurt mixed with water in Punjabi and Hindi-Urdu. Lassi is prepared by blending yogurt, water, and spices. In Punjab, the yogurt is traditionally made from water buffalo milk. Wikipedia Lassi is a popular beverage in India, particularly in the northern regions, and is known for its thirst-quenching and digestive benefits.
