Lassi (pronounced [ləsːi]) is a regional name for buttermilk,[1] the traditional dahi (yogurt)-based drink in the Indian subcontinent. Lassi is a blend of yogurt, water, spices and sometimes fruit. Salty lassi is similar to doogh, while modern sweet lassi is like milkshakes. Lassi may be infused with cannabis in the form of bhang.
Where do Mango Lassis Come From?
Lassis are an ancient drink originating from the Punjab region (Northern India and Eastern Pakistan). A lassi is a blended drink with dahl (yogurt), water, spices and sometimes fruit. It originated sometime around 1000 BC and was said to have Ayurvedic healing properties, calming the stomach and the mind.
Lassis were usually enjoyed after a to help aid digestion.
There are both salty and sweet versions of the drink, and were traditionally served in a clay cup, called a kulhar. An extra dollop of clotted cream (malai) may be spooned on top before serving.
Nowadays, there are so many different varieties, even chocolate and caramel lassis.
The fruit varieties, like mango lassis, are especially great to cool down during hot summer days.
