Instructions

  1. Prepare the avocados
    Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a blender. Add the lime juice and pulse briefly to prevent browning.
  2. Blend the base ingredients
    Add the yogurt, milk, honey, cardamom, and salt to the blender with the avocado. If using saffron, crush the strands slightly between your fingers and add them as well.
  3. Add ice and blend completely
    Add the ice cubes to the blender and blend on high speed until completely smooth and creamy, about 1-2 minutes. The consistency should be thick but pourable.
  4. Taste and adjust
    Taste the lassi and adjust sweetness with more honey if needed or add more milk if you prefer a thinner consistency.
  5. Chill and serve
    Pour the lassi into chilled glasses, garnish with fresh mint leaves, and serve immediately. For the best flavor and texture, serve very cold.
