Sweet Mint Lassi

Lassi is a yoghurt based drink prepared in north India. It can be made salty or a sweet drink. We have seen this drink in many Hindi movies rt :). There are different variety of lassi, most popular is the Mango lassi. Lassi is a very refreshing and healthy drink especially during the summer time. No soft drinks or soda drinks can beat the home made drinks like these rt. I wanted to make the salted mint lassi, but I thought my little one may not like it. So I made this sweet version of Lassi with the freshness and goodness of Mint. Hope you all will enjoy this lovely drink !!




Serves 2

You need...

1 cup Yoghurt
1/2 cup Water
a small bunch of Mint leaves
3-4 tbsp Honey or use Sugar
1/4 tsp Cardamom powder (optional)


To prepare..

Blend all the ingredients to get a smooth consistency. Adjust the sweetness as per your taste. If you desire, squeeze some lime juice. Serve chilled.
