Mango milk shake is a refreshing Indian summer drink. This is a delicious, refreshing, and easy-to-make drink for hot summer days.

Canned mango pulp is available in Indian and Latin American grocery stores.  The “mango nectar” that is widely available  in American grocery stores does not have nearly enough man-goes per unit volume to make this drink.  If you are lucky  enough to be able to get fresh mangoes, you can use the flesh of one ripe mango for about 1 cup of the mango pulp;  if you do that, increase the amount of sugar to 2 Tbsp per  batch, as canned mango pulp always has added sugar.

You can make interesting variations on this recipe by using  plain yogurt for some or all of the milk, and by adding a  tart counterbalance to the mangoes, such as shredded  kiwifruit.

INGREDIENTS 

1.     Mango pulp – 1 lb
2.     Whole milk – 6 cups
3.     Sugar – 3tsp
4.     Ice cubes -12

PROCEDURE

1. Put half of the mango pulp, 3 cups of milk, 1 1/2 tbsp of sugar, and 6 ice cubes into the blender.      Blend until smooth. Serve.
2. Repeat step 1, quickly, as people will already be  asking for more.

Mango Lassi is a traditional South Asian non-alcoholic beverage. In fact it is one of the most popular beverages in Northern India. Mango Lassi is also a favorite at Indian restaurants. This drink is a cross between a smoothie and a milk shake. Curd or yogurt is a lactic fermentation of milk. It is esteemed for its smoothness, its pleasant and refreshing taste. It is a valuable source of protein, essential vitamins and minerals. It is also a rich source of calcium and riboflavin. The proteins in curd are more readily digested than the protein in milk.

Know the Beauty Benefits of curd

Curd mixed with orange or lemon juice is a good face cleanser. It supplies moisture to the skin and fruit juice provides the essential vitamin C. One tablespoonful of juice should be mixed in one cup of curd. This should be applied to face and neck and allowed to dry for 15 minutes. It should then be wiped off with a soft tissue and washed with water.

Curd is also considered valuable in conditioning the hair. It makes the hair soft, healthy and strong. Curd should be massaged right into the roots of the hair before being washed off. Dandruff can be removed by massaging one’s hair for half an hour with curd which has been kept in the open for three days.

Milk products are really good for kids.  This Lazzi is a combination of Mango fruit and Curd which is real good.
