Growing up in India, I loved it when my parents would treat me to a yummy mango lassi! I am excited to share with you a vegan (dairy-free) version of this classic Indian drink. :)
Just 5 ingredients and 5 minutes required for this sweet, creamy smoothie.
INGREDIENTS
2 cups frozen ripe mango
1/2 - 1 cup coconut milk
1/4 cup plain unsweetened coconut yogurt
1 Tbsp lime juice (plus more to taste)
1-2 tsp honey (only if your mango isn’t sweet enough // if vegan use maple syrup)
FOR SERVING (optional)
Lime wedges
Shredded unsweetened coconut
Chopped fresh mango
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Add mango, coconut milk (start with a smaller amount of coconut milk and work your way up as needed), coconut yogurt, and lime juice to a high-speed blender or food processor. Blend on high until creamy and smooth, scraping down sides as needed.
2. Taste and adjust flavor as needed, adding honey (or maple syrup to keep vegan) at this time for a bit of sweetness (you may not need any), lime for acidity, coconut yogurt for thickness and tang, or coconut milk to thin.
3. Serve as is, or add fresh chopped mango, shredded coconut, and lime wedges to make a beautiful garnish.
4. Store leftovers covered in the fridge up to 24 hours (though best when fresh).
