Recipe notes
Storage
Mango lassi is best served immediately. Refrigerate without ice in an airtight container for up to 24 hours and stir or blend again before serving.
Additional tips
- Adjust the sugar according to the sweetness of the mango and yogurt. Add ice gradually so the drink does not become excessively diluted.
