Ingredients
- 1½ cup (250g) mango cubed (you will need about 2 medium mangoes)
- 1 cup (250g) dairy-free yogurt (see Notes)
- ⅓ cup (80ml) dairy-free milk
- 1-2 tbsp sweetener of choice (see Notes)
- ¼ tsp cardamom (optional)
- a spritz of lemon juice (optional)
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a blender or food processor and blend until completely smooth.
- Taste it and add more sweetener if needed. If you prefer a thinner lassi, add more milk.
- Add some ice cube to the blender if you want to make a mango lassi slush and blend again. I prefer a creamy lassi, therefore, I didn't use ice cubes. Enjoy!

Notes
- Mango: I recommend using fresh, ripe mangoes. If they’re not available where you live, you can also use frozen mangoes or canned mango puree (250 grams resp. 9 oz).
- Dairy-free yogurt: You can use coconut yogurt, soy yogurt, almond yogurt, etc.
- Sweetener: You can use organic sugar, a keto-friendly sweetener like Erythritol, or a liquid sweetener like maple syrup. I used just 1 tablespoon because we have super sweet and ripe tropical local mangoes here. Use 2-3 tablespoons if your mangoes aren’t sweet.
- Cardamom: I definitely recommend adding cardamom because it adds a lovely flavor, however, if you don’t have it, you can use cinnamon.
Store leftovers covered in the fridge for up to 2 days.
