Mangoes are definitely one of my summer treats and they're usually destined for a yogurt smoothie. Although some of them invariably end up in cocktails as well.
Lassis are the Indian smoothies that blend yogurt, fruit and spices. Mango is a popular version and definitely so in my house along with a good hit of cinnamon. Since we've been having a heatwave, I wanted something extra cold so decided to blend it up with ice for a frozen version. You don't have to add rum but, hey, it's fun. Cheers!
