A Strawberry Lassi is a yogurt based Indian drink that is much like a smoothie. It is creamy, strawberry deliciousness.Â
We love nothing more than a good Indian feast! Tikka Masala and naan and butter chicken, yum! The only appropriate drink to go with an Indian feast is a lassi. Why waste your money washing Indian food down with a soda?Â
A lassi is simply a yogurt based drink that originated in India. Sweet lassis are a blend of yogurt fruit, and sugar. It’s an Indian smoothie! Our favorites are strawberry and mango flavored lassis. No matter what’s on the menu at your Indian feast, you are going to love a sweet lassi to go with it.

Lassi Flavor Options:
We love a good strawberry lassi, but another common favorite is a mango lassi. Simply swap out the strawberries for ripe mangos or canned mango pulp. -
Yogurt Options:
We prefer full fat greek yogurt, but you can use any yogurt in this recipe. If you do not consume dairy, simply use a plant based yogurt in place of a dairy yogurt. -
Honey vs. White Sugar:
You can’t go wrong with either honey or white sugar. It is really just up to your personal preference.

I have to try this! Sounds really refreshing and I love trying something new…well, new to me anyway! Nice post!
So…Michael and I made this the other night. We accidentally put too many strawberries so we added a tiny bit of banana to smooth out the flavor, but it was still so yummy. Maybe not the real deal, but definitely delicious!
Yes. In fact, I thought about making it that way in the first place. Enjoy!
Can we use brown sugar instead of the white one?
