Mango Lassi - Vegan, Dairy-Free

The classic Indian lassi is made with mango and yogurt. Today, we use coconut milk to make this a vegan mango lassi which of course, makes it dairy-free lassi too. You can use fresh, frozen, or canned mangoes and it takes just 5 minutes to prepare.

Summer is here people!! It's hot!! Now, summer in Israel is not easy. It can go up to 40 degrees Celsius. The air condition is on but getting out of the house is like walking into the oven. My kids will not eat as much of course because they want to drink something cold. So fruit and yogurt drinks are always a must in the fridge

Traditionally Indian mango lassi is made with milk yogurt. However, these days the desire for non-dairy, gluten-free, and low-carb has been driving the trend. In this case, coconut works as a great natural alternative to dairy. So when necessary I use coconut instead of natural yogurt. It's naturally low-carb as well.

Ingredients and substitutes (Save/Pin)

  • Mangoes - Use fresh, frozen, or canned. If using can omit or reduce sugar in the recipe. When mangoes are in season I freeze a batch so I can use them when I need to offseason. I showed you  How to freeze mangoes - to use off-season in this post. 
  • Agave /Honey - If you use fresh mangoes in the season you won't need much honey or agave. You can also use coconut sugar but it might affect the color.
  • Coconut milk - I use a can of coconut cream, but coconut milk works too. The cream is richer like a frozen milkshake while the milk makes a more lassi like pouring consistency.
  • Ice - Ice works great in summer drinks but you could omit the ice. Blend it all without ice, add a little water to get the right consistency, then chill.

Frequently asked questions

How long does mango lassi last?

Mango lassi will last in the fridge for about 3 days. If you use non-dairy yogurt you may find that the whey separates leaving a water top but all you need to do is give it a good stir.

What does mango lassi taste like?

Well, the name may be Indian but as you can see it's basically mango, yogurt and sugar similar to a mango milkshake or mango smoothie.

Can you make mango lassi without sweeteners?

Yes, of course, if you have sweet mangoes you don't need any sweeteners but if necessary you can use a little honey, agave syrup, or coconut sugar.

Can I make mango lassi with yogurt?

Yes, of course, I shared with you my classic mango lassi which is made with dairy homemade yogurt. Also my mango chia smoothie

    I love mango, and have never tried a lassi. I do love smoothies...so I need to give this a try. Sounds like a great lunch for the hot summer days. My grandkids love mango....so when they are here 2 days a week this summer...I will make this for them too.

    I really needed this today!! It was so hot and humid and I was weeding our flower beds. I felt I was wilting and I needed something refreshing. The lassi would have been ideal. I'm getting the ingredients as soon as we go to the store. I can see why your kids enjoy them.

    • Veena Azmanov

      Oh, that is hard work, Marisa. This would have been a treat after all that weeding. Well, it is really hot here so there is no weeding.. all the weed just burns into the ground during summer.

    Yummy! I think i would put a little less coconut milk next time. I made a half batch and it's wonderful! Thanks for this refreshing recipe! Drinking it now!

    • Veena Azmanov

      Thank you Tammy, Yes, you can definitely add less coconut milk if you prefer. Also, it depends on the brand of coconut milk we buy. Mine is not overly thick so it was just right. Also I love coconut. Thanks for coming back to write this feedback. So happy to hear you enjoyed it.
