This sweet lassi recipe is a delicious blend of fruity flavors in every chilled sip. Since peaches are plentiful this time of year, this easy lassi recipe uses fresh, ripe peaches in place of mangos. These fresh peaches are added to a blender along with plain, low-fat Greek yogurt, Almond Breeze Almond Milk, and a little sugar. Crushed ice is blended along with the ingredients for a thick, cold beverage that tastes so good this time of year and the bonus is it’s good for you! The yogurt gives this lassi recipe a fair amount of protein and keeps it low in fat while the peaches add a variety of vitamins.

Recipe Tips
I added enough sugar to suit my tastes, but you’ll want to adjust the sugar you add to suit your own, individual tastes. Alternatively, agave nectar or honey may be used in place of the sugar.
You can swap the peaches out for some fresh mangos if desired.
Because we are blending this recipe anyways you can use either fresh or frozen fruit. If using frozen fruit, blend first without the ice and then add in ice if needed.
FAQs
What are the benefits of lassi?
A lassi drink is packed full of great nutritional benefits that you can easily fall in love with. From helping out with gut health to having some healthy proteins and calcium as well as vitamins from the fruit, every sip is as good for you as it tastes.
What is the best time to drink lassi?
While you can sip this drink any time of the day it is actually more common to enjoy it after a meal, especially when that meal was spicy. This is because the creamy yogurt can help to coat the digestive tracks and settle the stomach to soothe it after the invasion of spices.
