This creamy vegan mango lassi is a deliciously refreshing and dairy-free twist on the classic Indian mango yogurt drink. Made with frozen ripe mangoes, coconut milk, and coconut yogurt, it offers a smooth, tangy, and naturally sweet beverage that's perfect for a quick snack or a cooling treat on warm days. Enhanced with lime juice and optional natural sweeteners like honey or maple syrup, this recipe is easy to prepare in just 5 minutes and can be enjoyed immediately or stored for later.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups frozen ripe mango
  • 1/2 - 1 cup coconut milk (store-bought boxed or light canned)
  • 1/4 cup plain unsweetened coconut yogurt (e.g., Culina brand)
  • 1 Tbsp lime juice (plus more to taste)
  • 1-2 tsp honey (optional; use maple syrup if vegan)

Garnishes

  • Lime wedges
  • Shredded unsweetened coconut
  • Chopped fresh mango

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: Add the frozen mango, coconut milk (start with 1/2 cup and add more as needed), coconut yogurt, and lime juice into a high-speed blender or food processor.
  2. Blend Until Smooth: Blend on high speed until the mixture is creamy and smooth, making sure to scrape down the sides of the blender to incorporate all ingredients evenly.
  3. Adjust Flavor and Consistency: Taste the lassi and adjust the sweetness by adding honey or maple syrup if needed. For more acidity, add additional lime juice. To alter thickness, add more coconut yogurt for thickness and tanginess or more coconut milk to thin it out.
  4. Serve and Garnish: Pour the lassi into glasses. Optionally swirl with extra coconut yogurt and garnish with chopped fresh mango, shredded coconut, and lime wedges for an attractive and flavorful finish.
  5. Store Leftovers: Cover and refrigerate any leftovers for up to 24 hours for best freshness, or freeze them for up to 1 month. This smoothie mixture can also be made into ice cubes or popsicles for a refreshing frozen treat.

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of coconut milk depending on your preferred thickness of the lassi.
  • Use maple syrup instead of honey to keep the recipe completely vegan.
  • For best flavor, use ripe and sweet mangoes; if mangoes are less sweet, add more sweetener accordingly.
  • Fresh garnishes like lime wedges and shredded coconut enhance both presentation and flavor.
  • Consume the lassi fresh for optimal taste and texture, but it can be stored in the refrigerator or freezer as described.
  • You can experiment with different brands of coconut yogurt and milk to find your preferred taste and texture.
