Pineapple Lassi (Pineapple Yogurt Drink)
Lassi, a refreshing, healthy yogurt drink that is common in India, is now popular all over the world.
Ingredients
- 1 cup plain yogurt (full fat, low fat, or no fat)
- 5 oz fresh pineapple (chilled, peeled, and chopped or 5 oz of canned pineapple)
- 2 tbsp sugar (depending on the sweetness of pineapple, or use sugar substitute)
- ½ cup pineapple juice (if using canned pineapple)
- 1 cup ice or ice cubes (crushed)
Instructions
- Put all the ingredients with a ½ cup of crushed ice in a blender (or hand whisk) and blend until smooth. Taste for sugar. Save the extra ice in case you want the drink colder.
- Serve in tall stemware or regular glasses, garnished with a pineapple rind, chopped pineapple, or mint leaves.
Notes
You can adjust your lassi according to your taste. If you like a less thick lassi, then add more water/ice to the mix.
You can convert this into a milkshake by substituting the yogurt with a cup of milk, almond milk or oat milk. Just make sure both milk and fruit are well chilled, so the milk does not split. Adjust the sugar to your liking. Serve with dollops of ice cream and chopped nuts.
