Thoughts

I’ve tried making this with real mango and with mango pulp, and I prefer it with mango pulp. The flavor is more defined. However, if you live in a place where you can buy good, fresh mango, that will probably be a better, tastier option for you as opposed to the pulp.

Mango Lassi is an Indian beverage. It is like a mango smoothie. I discovered it one day at work when it was served at an event. I tried a little bit of it and instantly fell in love with the flavor. I decided that I have to recreate it at home. Everyone who has tired it, really enjoyed it.

This beverage is very refreshing and the honey enhances the mango flavor. I find some mango smoothies that I have bought in the past to be dull in flavor, but mango lassi has a very strong, delicious flavor. It is very refreshing and has the perfect amount of sweetness.

It is perfect for the upcoming, warm summer months. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Enjoy 🙂
