    When it is summer, it’s always good to keep your body cool from inside.

    Drinking buttermilk is one way to do so. Being south Indian, we drink neer mor often.

    But these days for a change often have salted lassi as we both love the flavour.

    I have roasted cumin powder (bhuna jeera) always, so it’s really handy for me to add black salt, cumin powder and have the flavourful drink.

    Had one organic cucumber sitting in fridge for few days and I was thinking to try this one for a change.

    Got freshΒ  mint too, so added it to the lassi for refreshing taste. Vj is not a big fan of cucumber so I had myself all 😁.

    Other summer drinks :

    • Masala chaas
    • Masala coke
    • Mango lassi
    • salted lassi
    • sweet lassi
    • masala mor
    • ice lemon tea

    Instructions

    1. Place chopped cucumber, mint and chilli in the blender and grind it well.
    grind

    2. Add rest of the ingredients and blend well. Filter it if you do not like the texture of cucumber.

    grind

    Best for summer as well as cool with cucumber and mint.

    Ingredients

    • 2 cups Curd Plain yogurt
    • 1 Cucumber small
    • 2 tablespoon Mint leaves packed

    • Place chopped cucumber, mint and chilli in the blender and grind it well.
    • Add rest of the ingredients and blend well.
    • Filter it if you do not like the texture of cucumber.

    Notes

    • You can add a piece of ginger and skip green chilli as green chilli would add heat to the lassi.
    • Do not add more mint leaves as it will over power and a raw green smell will be there.
    • Make sure to use clean ingredients as we are consuming raw.
    • Use chilled curd and consume as soon as you prepare the lassi.
    • I first did not filter, but I did not like the texture, so filter and had, then it was absolutely fine.
