Lassi is one of famous Indian drink made from Yogurt.
When I uploaded the recipe of Saag Chicken, Indian curry, I also talked a little bit about Lassi. Lassi is a juice very familiar in India, and almost all Indian food restaurants have Lassi on their menu. Indian dishes are usually very spicy. Lassi helps to reduce its hot taste in your mouth.
If you had a chance to cook any Indian dishes such as Saag Chicken or Tandori chicken, you should try Lassi with it.
This time, I used a yogurt has a raspberry sauce on the bottom. But I prefer to use plain yogurt to make Lassi. I think it taste a lot like real Lassi. Before you whip it together in a blender, you can put some fruit in it such as banana, mango and strawberry. You can enjoy great taste fruit Lassi !!
