Description
Masala lassi is a savory version of India's popular yogurt-based lassi drink and is also known as chhaas or mattha. It's frothy, refreshing and considered very healthy, making it a favorite way to cool down on a hot day or after a spicy meal. Unlike thick, sweet lassi, masala lassi is light and full of bright flavor from spices like cumin and ginger and from fresh herbs. Though it's traditionally made with homemade yogurt, Greek yogurt is a good substitute and gives the drink a nice tang. In India, lassi is typically mixed with a handheld wooden churn called a mathani or madani, but you can make it in a blender or with an immersion blender.
