Banana Lassi Recipe

Today I am going to share the Banana Lassi recipe one of my favourite Lassi, The combination of banana, Curd and cocoa is just sinfully delicious. I love the beautiful foam that forms on the top—it is so tasty and refreshing! This Creamy and energizing Coffee Lassi is full of chocolate flavour.
A perfect meal to start the day! I am sure, you will love this tasty, quick and easy Banana Lassi.

Banana Lassi is a tasty, refreshing yoghurt-based blended drink.
For this lassi, blend up bananas with yoghurt, sugar (optional) and ice in this recipe for a cold smoothie that’s ideal for the hot summer. It’s a great way to use bananas that are starting to ripen too fast when you don’t want to make a banana milkshake. It is flavoured with cardamom powder. You can also try cinnamon powder and nutmeg. So quick and easy to prepare. Always use fresh thick curd for making lassi. The taste of the lassi purely depends on the quality of the curd used.

What are the main ingredients of Banana Lassi?

Here’s what you’ll need to make this Banana Lassi:

  • Banana(Fresh or Frozen): Frozen bananas improve the thickness and texture of your smoothie. Just slice a big banana and put it on a plate in the freezer for about 2 hours, or do it before you go to bed, then they are perfect for your next morning Lassi.
  • Plain Yogurt: Make sure you are using fresh and thick curd. The beverage won’t taste good if the Dahi is sour. Swap it with plant-based yoghurt if you are vegan.
  • Sweetener: Add any of the sweeteners of your choice like honey, maple syrup, date syrup etc
  • Flavour: Cardamom Powder or Cinnamon Powder
  • Chilled milk or Water(optional): Add more or less to adjust the consistency. You can replace it with water or plant-based milk.
  • Topping: grated chocolate, choco chips or nuts etc. as per taste.

Method:

  • Put the sliced banana, curd, sweetener and cardamom Powder in the blender and blend until creamy,  smooth and foamy.
  • Add some ice cubes while grinding.
  • Pour into glass garnish with grated chocolate and serve immediately. 

Note:

You can adjust the consistency of your Lassi by adding more milk or water to make it thinner or more bananas to make it thicker.

Chill it in the refrigerator for an hour or two and serve it chilled.

Suggestions:

To Make a Vegan Banana Lassi: To make this recipe vegan, replace dairy yoghurt with your favourite vegan plant-based yoghurt.
Storage: Banana lassi must be consumed shortly after blending to maintain its temperature, texture and taste.
Frozen Banana: Always use some frozen bananas or fruits to keep it extra cool and flavorful. 
Sweetener: Adjust the amount of Sweetener depending on the sweetness of the banana.
Fresh Curd: Make sure the curd is not sour. Always use fresh thick curd.
Ice Cube: If you want to serve immediately, add ice cubes while blending.

Garnishing: Garnish it with your favourite toppings like cocoa powder, grated chocolate, chocolate chips, nuts, etc.

Chill/freeze ingredients: Banana lassi is best served chilled. Start with frozen Banana and chilled yoghurt/Dahi. This way you don’t have to add ice, which dilutes the flavours.

Variations:

Add in some vanilla extract for a delightful vanilla flavour.
You can also add rose water or gulkand to the drink.
To make kesar lassi (saffron-infused lassi), soak a pinch of saffron in warm milk and add it to the lassi.
