Substitute

If you’re out of ingredients, don’t worry! You can still make a delicious Mango Lassi Mocktail with some simple swaps. 🍹

One great substitute for fresh mango is frozen mango chunks. They’re just as sweet and give the drink a nice chill. If you prefer, you can also use mango puree or juice for a smoother texture.

For a dairy-free option, replace the yogurt with coconut or almond yogurt. 🥥 It’s a delicious twist and still keeps your lassi creamy.

Here’s a quick list of substitutes:

• Mango: Frozen mango, mango puree, mango juice
• Yogurt: Coconut yogurt, almond yogurt

Lassi is traditionally sweetened with sugar, but feel free to try other sweeteners like honey, agave syrup, or even stevia if you’re looking to cut back on sugar. 🍯

To thicken the lassi, try adding a banana. It adds sweetness and a nice, creamy texture. 🍌

I love experimenting with different herbs and spices too. Mint leaves bring a refreshing taste and a sprinkle of cinnamon or cardamom can add warmth and depth.

Of course, creativity is key when making your perfect mango lassi! What do you use as substitutes? Share your favorite ideas in the comments below!
