This recipe of Fruit Lassi is simple, easy, non-fussy and makes for a nutritious, refreshing drink for summers. I have used mangoes and bananas as my choice of fruits and some flavorings. You can customize according to how you want to treat your palates.
Take the chopped mangoes and bananas in a blender. Also add seeds of the green cardamoms and the rose water.
Add ½ cup milk and blend till smooth and fine.
Next add 4 to 5 tablespoons of the sugar or honey (or add sugar or honey as required), ½ cup milk and 2 cups curd or yogurt. You can also add ice cubes at this step.
Blend again to a smooth, fine and creamy consistency
Pour the Mixed Fruit Lassi in tall glasses.
Serve Fruit Lassi immediately.
Notes
Feel free to add your choice of fruits, but do make sure that the chosen fruit makes for a compatible pairing with the curd or yogurt.
Avoid using acidic citrus fruits like lemons, oranges, tangarines etc and melons like water melon, cantaloupe, musk melons etc.
For a healthier version, use skimmed milk and use yogurt made from skimmed milk or low-fat milk.
