Picture this: it's a scorching summer afternoon, and you're craving something utterly refreshing. You're tired, maybe even a little cranky. That's when the idea hits – a creamy, cool lassi, but with a twist. Not just any lassi, but a Mint Majesty Lassi! It's like a burst of sunshine and a gentle breeze all in one sip. One time, I was hiking with a friend, Sarah, and we were completely wiped out. I had pre-made this lassi, and it was like giving her a super power. We were able to finish that trail afterall!
This recipe is more than just a drink; it's an experience. The combination of sweet mango, cool mint, and creamy yogurt creates a symphony of flavors that dance on your tongue. I remember the first time I tried this combination, I was sceptical as hell; I thought mint and mango wouldn't work, but boy was I wrong!. It’s incredibly easy to make, requires minimal ingredients, and is perfect for any occasion. Plus, it's a fantastic way to sneak in some extra nutrients – talk about a win-win!

🍽 Ingredients
📖 Instructions
- Wash the Mint: Thoroughly rinse the fresh mint leaves under cold water to remove any dirt or debris. Gently pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel. This ensures your lassi is fresh and clean-tasting. Don't skip this step!
- Prepare the Mango: Peel and chop the mango into small, manageable pieces. If using frozen mango, measure out the required amount. Having the mango ready makes the blending process smoother.
- Combine Ingredients in Blender: In a blender, combine the washed mint leaves, chopped mango, yogurt, milk (or almond milk), honey (or your chosen sweetener), and ice cubes. Make sure the lid is on tight!
- Blend Until Smooth: Blend the mixture on high speed until it is completely smooth and creamy. This usually takes about 1-2 minutes, depending on your blender. Pause halfway through to scrape down the sides if needed.
- Taste and Adjust: Pour the lassi into a glass and take a sip. Add more honey if you prefer it sweeter or more mint if you want a stronger mint flavor. Blend again briefly to incorporate the adjustments.
- Serve Immediately: Pour the Mint Majesty Lassi into your favorite serving glasses. Garnish with a few fresh mint leaves or a small slice of mango for an extra touch. Serve immediately and enjoy this cool, refreshing drink!
📝 Notes
- Adjust sweetness to taste. Some mangoes are sweeter than others!
- For a thicker lassi, use Greek yogurt.
