- Canned mangoes usually come with sugar syrup, in that case, do not add additional
sweeteners to the mix without prior tasting.
- Don’t use sour curd; it will ruin the balance of flavors in Lassi.
- Adding milk is optional.
- You can add approximately ¼ cup of condensed milk while blending, to make lassi even more thick and delicious
- If you want to add to the indulgence, serve with a spoonful of thick cream on
top or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
- A drizzle of rose water or rose essence adds a burst of freshness, do try it out
