Mango lassi or mango yogurt smoothie is my kids' favorite and they have to have it whenever we are in any Indian restaurant. Mango is a summer fruit and I end up making lassi with fresh mangoes several times during the season to my kids' delight.
It is delicious, filling, and healthy with all the right ingredients.

What is Lassi?
Lassi is a very famous Indian sweet yogurt smoothie mixed with spices like cardamom powder, almonds, pistachio and saffron for garnishing. Different flavors are made by adding flavors or, ripe fruits such as strawberry and mango.
Our family's favorite is mango lassi made with fresh mangoes or mango pulp. It is a gluten-free, kid-friendly drink and complements any Indian meal.

Mango lassi can be made with fresh mangoes or with mango pulp. You will also need yogurt, sugar, or sweetener of your choice like stevia.
A few saffron strands and cardamom powder is used for enhancing flavor and garnishing. Optionally some chopped almonds and pistachio can also be used for garnishing.
In this recipe, I am using fresh mangoes and homemade yogurt made in instant pot.

Adjust the sweetness and thickness as per liking by adding sugar and or water.
