Equipment

Blender

Ingredients

2 cups roughly chopped strawberries (about 8 ounces)
1 cup plain yogurt
½ cup milk, any type
1 ½ tablespoons honey, sugar or other sweetener of your choice (adjust amount to taste)
2 pinches cardamom
Optional: ice cubes

Instructions

Blend all ingredients together in a high-speed blender until smooth and frothy. Adjust sweetness to taste. Serve cold.

Notes

The amount of sweetener you need will depend on how sweet the strawberries are. Add more as needed to suit your taste.

Use cold ingredients so that the lassi is cold. Otherwise, you can chill the drink in the fridge before serving or add a few ice cubes to the blender (but this may water it down a little bit).

For a floral flavor, you can add a little rosewater to the lassi.

For a decadent treat, you can top the lassi with a dollop of whipped cream.

You can turn any leftover strawberry lassi into popsicles. Just pour it into popsicle molds and freeze until firm.

You can make this recipe vegan by using nondairy yogurt (like coconut yogurt) and nondairy milk.
