Saffron Mango Lassi

POSTED ON OCT 16, 2022 BY ZAFFERAN & CO.

Saffron Mango Lassi! Yeah, it is delicious and more than half of Indians are obsessed with them. I am not kidding! In the Indian subcontinent “Lassi” refers to any yogurt based drink.

This warm weather sets the stage for the perfect drink – the saffron mango lassi. Saffron mango lassis are refreshingly fruity and creamy. While there are so many ways to make a lassi, including salty and sweet, fruity and non-fruity, the mango lassi will always be my absolute favorite.

• If you can’t find fresh mangoes, you can use frozen mango cubes. But I won’t suggest canned mango puree as they have a lot of sugar added to it.
