Indulge in the creamy, refreshing delight of Meethi Lassi, a classic Indian sweet yogurt drink that's perfect for beating the summer heat or complementing a spicy meal. Made with velvety plain yogurt, a splash of chilled milk, and sweetened to perfection with sugar, this luscious beverage is elevated by the aromatic touch of cardamom powder and a whisper of fragrant rose water. Blended with ice cubes for a frothy, cooling texture and garnished with slivers of almonds or pistachios, Meethi Lassi is a quick and easy recipe that comes together in just 5 minutes. Serve this traditional favorite as a midday treat or a festive addition to your table, and savor the irresistible combination of creamy sweetness and nutty crunch.
In a blender, add 2 cups of plain unsweetened yogurt, 0.5 cups of chilled milk, and 3 tablespoons of sugar.
Blend the mixture for about 1 to 2 minutes until it becomes smooth and frothy.
Add 0.25 teaspoons of cardamom powder, 1 teaspoon of rose water, and 6 pieces of ice cubes into the blender.
Blend again for 30 seconds to combine and to chill the lassi.
Taste the lassi and adjust sugar if needed. Blend briefly to mix, if any changes are made.
Pour the Meethi Lassi into serving glasses.
Garnish with sliced almonds or pistachios for a nutty crunch.
Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing sweetness!
