This thick, creamy and sweet mango drink is just like a smoothie and great for breakfast too! Breakfast has never been so easy! Sometimes I fail to understand the difference between smoothie and lassi. Both are yogurt-based drinks except they are named differently across the world.
Luckily in the UK, when fresh mangoes are not in season, we get tins of mango pulp readily available in any grocery store. So, it’s time for Sweet Mango Lassi all year round at our place! Quick & Easy recipe!
You can also use this easy mango lassi drink recipe as a base to make any other fruit smoothies like this Strawberry Lassi that are perfect for breakfast too.

What is Mango Lassi ?
Lassi is popular yogurt based drink from the Indian subcontinent. Sweet and Savoury versions of Lassi are made in every households in India all year round.
Cucumber Lassi & Masala Chaas are two of my favourite savory lassi recipes.
However there are plenty of sweet ones.
I was introduced this delicious mango lassi about 15 years back, when I moved to UK.

Ingredients You’ll need
You will only need 3 Ingredients and may be some water or cold milk to make this Easy Peasy Vegan Lassi.
Mango – Fresh sweet Mango, frozen mango cubes, or Mango Puree – all forms of mango works great for this recipe. I have used KTC Kesar Mango Pulp, as it is always readily available in the pantry. Alphonso or Kesar Mango Pulp is easy to buy from the Asian Isle at Tesco, Sainsburys or ASDA.
Yogurt – I like to use thick and creamy yogurt or even greek yogurt. For a vegan alternative, I like to use coconut yogurt or almond yogurt.
Ground Cardamom powder – adds the richness to this Indian lassi.
Cold Water or Milk – is optional. I like to add a splash of milk or water to dilute the consistency of my lassi if it’s too thick. If you hate milk, simply add a little more yogurt and adjust the consistency.
Garnishes are completely optional too. Add a pinch of saffron or even pistachio for additional flavor. Some people also enjoy adding a splash of rose water. All these garnishes makes the Lassi a restaurant style mango lassi recipe.
HOW TO MAKE THIS EASY INDIAN MANGO LASSI with Mango Pulp?

TIPS & SUGGESTIONS for MANGO SMOOTHIE LASSI
Cold Water / Cold Milk – Add water or cold milk to adjust the lassi to a desired consistency. I did not add any of them to my drink.
Use Ice cubes if you like the lassi colder.
How to make Lassi with frozen mango?
Frozen mango cubes also works great in this recipe. Use a high speed blender to blend smooth when you are working with frozen fruits.
Can I use sour yogurt for making lassi?
If you find your yogurt a bit sour, adding milk will adjust the flavors of the lassi.
Can you make Vegan Mango Lassi?
This recipe can be easily made vegan. Use coconut yogurt or almond yogurt. Use any vegan milk or water instead of plain milk.
