We went to visit my friend’s place in Japan and checked into a restaurant for lunch: there was an option of “Avocado Sweet Lassi” in the menu card. OMG it was so smooth and creamy in texture, delicious, satisfying and filling. That day onward this is our favorite drink to serve for friends and family.
Avocado Sweet Lassi is a creamy, twist on the classic Indian yogurt-based drink, combining the rich, buttery texture of avocado with the sweet and cooling essence of traditional lassi. This fusion drink is not only delicious but also packed with nutrition, offering a modern superfood upgrade to a centuries-old favorite.
Perfect as a refreshing summer beverage, post-meal dessert, or even a nourishing breakfast drink, Avocado Sweet Lassi is a great way to enjoy the goodness of yogurt and the health benefits of avocado in one glass. It’s a delicious blend of Indian tradition and contemporary health trends—a treat for both the taste buds and the body.
It can be stored in refrigerator for about an hour or two, but it is best to consume immediately.
