Coconut and Mango Lassi's

I had fun making lassi's for the tried and true ladies.  We all were happy with the white grape juice sweetener, but most wanted plenty of it.  





I have been drinking coconut lassi's almost every morning since for breakfast.  I can't get enough of my tropical flavors lately.  


Mango Lassi
1 cup plain yogurt
1/2 cup milk
1 cup chopped mango
4 Tbsp sweetener of choice
Dash of cardamom is good!

Put all ingredients into a blender and blend away!  
Delicious served over ice with a straw and a dash of cardamom on top!

Coconut Lime Lassi
1/2 cup coconut milk
1 1/2 cups plain yogurt
Juice from one lime (optional---I think a tsp is a good way to go, as well)
2-4 Tbsp sweetener (honey is delicious, white grape juice is nice, too)
Cardamom, optional

Blend it up and serve over ice!  Heaven!

We had several ladies who enjoyed mixing the mango and the coconut lassi together.  

Thanks for the lesson on how to cut a mango, Kamille!  What a pretty centerpiece for a fruit plate!  My kids love it!
