Equipment

  • Blender

Ingredients

  • 2 cups whole milk yogurt chilled
  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • Salt to taste
  • 1/2 cup ice cubes

Instructions

  • Transfer the yogurt, water, salt and ice cubes to a blender.
  • Blend until smooth and frothy.
  • Pour into chilled glasses, garnish with fresh mint leaves, and serve immediately.

Notes

Yogurt: You can also use low-fat yogurt, although the consistency of lassi will change.
Water: You can adjust the amount of water to how thin or thick you like your lassi to be.
Salt: Himalayan pink salt and kaala namak are also good options here.
Roasted Cumin: You can also add about 1/2 teaspoon of dry roasted and crushed cumin seeds. To make this, just dry roast the cumin seeds on low heat, until fragrant. Coarsely crush, and sprinkle over the prepared lassi.
Storage: You can store the lassi in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. The water and yogurt will separate as it sits, so before using, just whisk it with a fork or spoon to combine.
