Mango Lassi

Lassi is a traditional Indian drink made with yogurt and can either be sweet (with sugar added) or savory (flavored with spices). Mango Lassi is one of the more popularlassi drink and can be made with or without sugar addition depending on how sweet the mango used in the drinks are. Most people serve their lassi over ice but I think it dilutes the flavor. Personally, I like mine chilled before serving and usually use glasses that have been chilled in the refrigerator of freezer for a few minutes. Be careful though as it may cause the glass to shatter if left in the freezer for a long time.
