Sweet Lassi (Sweet Yogurt Drink)

Scorched by the summer heat? Grab a large glass of sweet lassi (sweet yogurt drink), sip and beat the heat-Indian style!

This creamy yogurt, slightly sweet drink is a jewel among my Indian drink collection and never fails to please its takers. Its striking contrast of sweet and tangy flavors rejuvenates the most jaded soul and serves as a great base for your favorite add-ons.

So have it just like that or blend it up with fruits like mango, strawberry, papaya or rose water and dash of saffron for a fancy touch.
