How to Make a Perfect Banana Lassi

This Banana Lassi recipe is a favourite of mine; refreshing and comforting at the same time. If you don’t like banana you could swap this for a very ripe mango.

The name ‘Lassi’ is given to a yoghurt based drink that originates from India where traditionally spices are added along with fruit and a sweetener.

Cardamom is added to this Lassi and is wonderful for the digestive system.

Perfect for breakfast or pre/post-workout.
