In a blender, combine the plain yogurt, cold water, unsweetened almond milk, stevia, and ground cardamom.
Add the rose water and ice cubes to the mixture.
Blend on high speed until smooth and frothy, about 2 minutes.
Taste and adjust the sweetness if necessary by adding a little more stevia.
Pour the lassi into glasses and garnish with chopped pistachios if desired.
Serve immediately, chilled, for best results.
