Dairy-Free Mango Lassi

Mango lassi is a simple and tasty beverage from Indian cuisine that’s usually made with yogurt and/or milk. Substitute coconut yogurt and your favorite non-dairy milk and you've got a fantastic non-dairy version. Lush, ripe seasonal mango is best for this, but canned mango works as well.
