Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup fresh strawberries (or frozen, thawed slightly)
- 1 cup plain yogurt (or Greek yogurt for a thicker texture)
- ½ cup ice cubes or crushed ice
- 2 tbsp honey, maple syrup, or sugar (adjust to taste)
- ¼ tsp cardamom powder (optional, for warm spice notes)
- ½ tsp rose water (optional, for a floral aroma)
- Mint leaves (for garnish)
Instructions
- Wash and hull the strawberries.
- In a blender, combine strawberries, yogurt, ice cubes, sweetener, cardamom, and rose water.
- Blend until smooth and frothy (about 30–60 seconds).
- Taste and adjust sweetness if needed.
- Pour into serving glasses, garnish with mint leaves or sliced strawberries, and serve chilled.
Notes
- Use full-fat yogurt for a richer and creamier texture.
- Chill your yogurt before blending for a refreshing drink.
- If the lassi is too thick, add a splash of milk or water to adjust consistency.
- For a savory twist, skip the sweetener and add black salt with a pinch of cumin powder.
- Store in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours, but it’s best enjoyed fresh.
