INSTRUCTIONS
from Extending the Table, a World Community Cookbook:
Mix first 5 ingredients together. Immerse 6-8 fresh mint leaves (bruise
leaves and tie ends of stalks together) into lassi. Let stand in fridge at
least 5 hours to allow mint flavor to permeate lassi. Remove mint before
serving.
This cold mint beverage is a variation of a common South Asian drink,
often flavored with rose water. Similar drinks are served in the Middle
East. Lassi is a nice accompaniment to hot spicy foods. Children wll enjoy
making and drinking it as a refreshing snack. All proportions may be varied
to taste.
