A refreshing drink drunk all over India. Sweet lassi is drunk mostly in Northern India & salty lassi (or buttermilk) in the South. Mango lassi is another refreshing alternative.

I always make mine with cold milk instead of water and even if making a sweet mango type lassi always adds a good pinch of salt for a bit bite.
And of course any yogurt/milk drink is the antidote to too much eye watering chilli burn (whaaaaaaaaa)
