Introduction

This refreshing Mango and Orange Lassi is a delightful twist on the traditional Indian yogurt drink. Combining the sweetness of mango and the citrusy brightness of orange, it makes a perfect cooling beverage for any time of day.

The glass has a bright yellow handle and base, with a thin orange slice perched on the rim. On top of the drink, there are two fresh green mint leaves adding a pop of color. In the background, there is a second glass filled with the same drink and some whole oranges placed nearby.

Tips & Variations

For a thicker lassi, use frozen mango chunks instead of fresh and reduce the ice.
Swap honey with agave syrup or maple syrup for a vegan-friendly version.
Add a pinch of cardamom for a traditional Indian flavor boost.

Storage

Fresh lassi is best enjoyed immediately, but you can store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Stir well before drinking and avoid storing with ice to keep the texture smooth. Refrain from freezing as it may change the consistency.
