Mango lassi

[Anonymous]

I have a fierce craving for a mango lassi, can anyone recommend one they’ve had in the NoVA area? Preferably in the Fairfax/Vienna/Tysons area, but willing to drive a little further for something great!

A tried and true recipe might do as well, for a second option

Choolah out in Sterling has them.

I love Choolah’s lassi.

If you want to stay close to home, go to any Indian restaurant.

Amma’s
Jaipur
Haandi
Bansari
Bombay Tandoor

They’re all near Tysons

Blend Alphonso mango pulp with whole milk yogurt, add a teeny bit of ground cardamom and sugar to taste if needed. Add whole milk to thin to your liking. Garnish with saffron if you’re feeling decadent.

I just do Kefir, frozen mango pulp if we don’t have fresh and a dollop of rosewater.

Kefir, frozen mango, spiced to taste (cinnamon / cardamom / ginger / nutmeg / cloves).

I think this person is Indian, as am I. I would use buttermilk rather than yogurt and add some lemon juice to taste.

I never thought to add buttermilk! (not the OP and I am not indian, but my recipe is similar to the above. I have used mango pulp and whole milk yogurt. I will try this! I love mango lassi when I make spicy curry food. it helps with the heat.

Mango lassi is easy to make. Fruit smoothies ate easy to make.

If you're in the Alexandria part of Fairfax County then there are two great Indian restaurants that have Mango Lassi -- Dishes of India in the Belle View Shopping Center and Taj of India on Richmond Highway.

Not a mango lassi lol but if you ever go to Gong Cha in Rockville, and order the Mango smoothie, it tastes exactly like a Mango Lassi. No added sugar necessary.
