Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups yoghurt use vegan yoghurt for a vegan version
  • 1 cup chilled water or milk to make it richer
  • ½ cup mango pulp fresh or canned
  • 1 tsp cardamom powder
  • 2 tbsp rose essence
  • 2-3 tbsp jaggery powder or sweetener of choice to taste
  • 2-3 ice cubes optional
  • 2-3 drops red food color optional
For garnishing
  • 2-3 tbsp pistachios finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp edible dried rose petals

Equipment

  • Blender/Mixer

Method
 

  1. In your blender/mixer jar, take 1 cup yoghurt, ½ cup chilled water (or milk), cardamom powder, mango pulp and ice cubes - I have not added jaggery here as my mango pulp was quite sweet. Blend everything together until well incorporated
  2. Check if you need to adjust for sweetness. Pour in individual tall glasses until half full
  3. Wash your blender jar and add the remaining yoghurt, water (or milk), rose essence, food color (if using), jaggery powder and ice cubes. Blend everything until evenly mixed
  4. Pour the rose lassi over the mango lassi in the glasses. Garnish with pistachios and rose petals and serve chilled. Enjoy!
