Instructions
Combine Ingredients
Add the mango chunks, plain yogurt, milk, sugar, and cardamom to a blender. If using fresh mango make sure it is fully ripe for the sweetest most flavorful result. Frozen mango also works wonderfully and creates a thicker colder lassi.
Blend Until Smooth
Blend on high speed for 60 to 90 seconds until the lassi is completely smooth and creamy with no mango chunks remaining. Taste and adjust sweetness by adding more sugar or honey as needed.
Serve and Garnish
Pour the mango lassi into tall glasses over ice if desired. Garnish with a pinch of ground cardamom or a small slice of fresh mango on the rim. Serve immediately for the best taste and texture.
