Ingredients
Scale
1 cup fresh or frozen mango chunks
1 cup plain yogurt (whole milk recommended for creaminess)
1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
1-2 tablespoons sugar or honey (adjust to mango sweetness)
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
4-6 ice cubes (if using fresh mango)
Instructions
Place the mango chunks, yogurt, milk, sugar or honey, and ground cardamom into your blender.
Add the ice cubes if you are using fresh mango chunks.
Secure the lid and blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. Stop and scrape down the sides if necessary.
Taste the lassi. Add more sweetener if you prefer it sweeter, or a splash more milk if it is too thick for your liking. Blend again briefly.
Pour the Mango Lassi Smoothie into tall glasses immediately.
Serve and enjoy your refreshing treat!
Notes
For an extra chilled drink, chill your yogurt and milk beforehand.
If you use frozen mango, you may omit the ice cubes entirely.
Feel free to substitute the sugar with maple syrup or your preferred sweetener.
A tiny squeeze of fresh lime juice can brighten the mango flavor.
