Mango Turmeric Lassi Smoothie
A cross between yogurt and a smoothie, this Indian-originated beverage is at once sweet yet savory, light but oh-so satisfying.
Tip: Aside from drinking straight up, this lassi is perfectly paired with your favorite granola and berries, tossed in chia seeds for a quick pudding, or in a smoothie bowl with fruit, nuts and seeds of your choice.
Ingredients
2 cups cubed frozen mango
1 1/2 cups full-fat plain yogurt or coconut yogurt
2 tsp ground turmeric
1/8 tsp ground cardamom + additional for garnish
Pinch ground black pepper
1 tbsp pure maple syrup or raw honey, optional
Preparation
1. In a blender, add 2 cups water and all ingredients; blend until smooth.
2. Pour into glasses and garnish each with a sprinkle of cardamom. (If storing, pour into Mason jars for an easy grab-and-go snack or breakfast.)
