Caavakushi Pro Tips For Your Sweet Lassi

1. Some people like their lassi slightly watered down compared to others. If that’s you, we suggest adding more ice and a bit of water to weaken the mixture. This will lessen the potency of your drink. So you don’t end up with as strong a taste of coconut.

2. On the other hand, if you’d like your drink to be thicker and creamier. We suggest adding more coconut milk and more coconut yogurt. Do this gradually and keep tasting every time you add more. Don’t go overboard with it, as you may end up ruining the taste. Remember a little goes a long way!

3. To add that little extra je ne sais quoi to this sweet lassi, we suggest adding a different texture. What we found to be a perfect fit for this drink is chopped pistachios and cashew nuts. Add them to your NutriBullet or any other blender that you may have and blend or grind to the consistency of that suits you. Garnish the drink by sprinkling them on top.
