    Your lassi reminds me of the lassi which I had last in Old Delhi. It was awesome and loved the taste.

    I remember my maid in Mumbai making wonderful salt lassi and I think she added something green (cilantro/parsley?) and other spices. We are making your mango lassi tomorrow for the children since the weather is still warm in Austin Texas. Thank you for the lovely recipe and information on the salted lassi (my favorite).
