Lassi is a traditional Indian drink made with yogurt, generally consumed for its refreshing qualities. There are two main variations of lassi :
- Sweet lassi : Blended with sugar and sometimes fruit, such as mango, to create a smooth and creamy drink. Mango lassi is one of the most popular versions.
- Salty lassi : Prepared with salt, spices like cumin or coriander, and sometimes fresh herbs, this version is more common in traditional Indian meals.
Lassi is naturally gluten-free, as it is primarily made of yogurt and water, or milk, and can be flavored in various ways. It is appreciated for its refreshing effect, particularly as an accompaniment to spicy dishes in Indian cuisine .
