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.

Ingredients

1 ½ to 2 cups chopped fresh mango 1 large or 2 medium; or 15-ounce can with liquid
⅔ cup coconut yogurt
1 ½ cups vanilla unsweetened nondairy milk or as needed
Sweetener of choice to taste, optional
A few ice cubes optional
Pinch ground cardamom optional

Instructions

Combine the mango, yogurt, and nondairy milk in a blender. Blend until smooth.
If the mixture is too thick, add more nondairy milk and give it another whirl.
Taste for sweetness, and if desired, add your preferred sweetener — agave, maple syrup, or stevia.
Add a few ice cubes if you’d like to have the drink nice and cold, plus a pinch of cardamom if using. Blend again and divide between 2 to 3 glasses to serve.
