For me the easiest summer drink is lassi, take curd and whirl it up with any fruit or veggies and tada you have a delicious drink. It not only hydrates your body, keeps you full and it is damn versatile! you never get bored trying a lassi. I have quite few here in my kitchen Beetroot lassi, celery & mint lassi, Fresh turmeric & herbs lassi, Carrot & ginger lassi, spiced buttermilk, Neer Majjige,Mango Lassi, Gooseberry/amla lassi.
Ingredients
1 lebanese cucumber, chopped
one fistful of fresh mint leaves, washed
1/2 cup plain yogurt
1/4 cup water (optional)
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp freshly grated ginger
1/4 tsp roasted cumin powder
Method
- Take all the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth and frothy.
- Serve garnished with a thin slice of cucumber and mint leaves.
- You will definitely feel the chillness when you gulp it down, it just cools your whole system. Give it a try!!!.
