Mangoes
The mango pulp is the softest fruit pulp; it just melts in the month. The Mango Lassi is the most refreshing drink you can make in summer with just a blender and three ingredients such as yogurt, mango, and sugar. It takes just 5 minutes. Throw in a few ice cubes and you have the MOST REFRESHING SUMMER DRINK EVER!!

Let’s talk ingredients and substitutes (Save/Pin)
- Mangoes – If you can find fresh, use fresh if not you can use canned mangoes for this too!
What I like to do is – 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. - Sugar / Honey – If you use fresh mangoes in the season you probably won’t need much sugar. So do a taste test, you want it to have a nice sweet yogurt drink but not too sweet as well. If you prefer you can use Honey too! It works just as well.
- Yogurt – The thicker the yogurt you use – the thicker the drink you will have. Personally, I use my homemade yogurt from scratch made with 3% fat. You can use anything from Greek yogurt for a thick creamy to a low-fat yogurt for a light refreshing drink.
- Ice – Ice works great in summer drinks but if you want you could omit the ice and use just cold yogurt. The drink will be less thick but you will still enjoy it.

Traditionally Mango Lassi is made with milk yogurt but nowadays we get many non-dairy yogurts in the market like coconut milk yogurt and Cashew milk yogurt. Go ahead and try whichever flavor works for you. I have made this will just plain cashew milk and that works too! Try my Mango Chia Smoothie
