I love mango lassi’s. It’s practically sacrilege for me to go to an Indian restaurant and not order a mango lassi. Mangoes are my favorite fruit and on this blog you will find lots of smoothies that include mango not to mention jams that include mango, mango crabcakes and a variety of other mango recipes.

Surprisingly, I didn’t have mango lassi. So when I was perusing Sapana’s blog for a recipe for her surprise virtual baby shower from her Blogging Marathon friends, this was the recipe selected.

I love Sapana’s version better than the restaurant version. The restaurant version is usually richer and thicker and is quite an indulgence. Hers felt lighter that I wouldn’t feel so guilty in indulging in more often. Also I am not sure the restaurant version always includes the cardamom and saffron as I found this version more flavorful as well.

  1. Thanks a lot Mirelle for this virtual baby shower . I am speechless and I don't have words to say. But Thank you for all your time and efforts to arrange this vritual treat.

  2. My son is also a big fan of mango lassi. It’s so easy to make at home when mangoes are in season. Cardamom pairs well with mangoes too.
