Ingredients- Frozen mango chunks, about 1/2 cup
- Fresh milk, 100ml
- Clear whey, 100ml
- Honey, 1 Tbsp
- Lemon juice, 1 Tbsp
- Ice cubes, 1/2 cup
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare your chilled frozen mango. Add about half a cup of mango chunks to your blender. Using frozen mango means you won’t need to add as much ice, resulting in a thicker, creamier lassi.
Step 2
Next, pour in 100ml of clear whey, the liquid leftover from making cheese or yogurt. Whey is rich in protein and minerals, boosting the nutritional value of your lassi and adding a subtle savory depth.
Step 3
Now, add 100ml of fresh milk to the blender. Milk helps to make the lassi wonderfully creamy and smooth in texture.
Step 4
Add 1 Tbsp of lemon juice to enhance the lassi’s flavor profile. Lemon juice not only brightens the sweetness of the mango but also balances the overall taste.
Step 5
Finally, for a touch of sweetness, add 1 Tbsp of honey. Honey provides a natural sweetness that pairs beautifully with the mango.
Step 6
If you don’t have honey, don’t worry! You can substitute it with other sweeteners like condensed milk or sugar, adjusting to your personal taste. Feel free to taste and adjust the sweetness level as needed.
Step 7
Secure the lid on your blender and process for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until all ingredients are smoothly blended. Once your thick and creamy mango lassi is ready, carefully pour it into your serving glass. You can add more ice if you prefer an icier consistency.
Step 8
And there you have it! A delicious and visually appealing Mango Lassi made using leftover whey. Enjoy this refreshing and sweet treat immediately!
