Healthy Hints
Falling into the category of both a drink and dessert, mango lassi can be served post-meal as a sweet dish or a snack with some fresh nuts sprinkled on top if you’re trying to keep your meals light. Although sugar is needed to balance the tartness of fresh yoghurt, you can skip this step if you prefer your proportion of yoghurt to fruit to be slightly higher.
