We all have embraced the smoothie and acai bowl trend to lose weight. However, we often forget our homegrown lassi – a refreshing drink made by diluting fresh curd or yogurt in water and blending it to achieve a cooling, nutritious drink.

With the onset of summertime, now is the perfect time to bring back the amazing lassi in your kitchen. You may also find packaged lassi available in stores but it is best to make one instantly at home. What’s more, you can also experiment with various other ingredients to create a new variety of lassi everyday.

Lassi is excellent for weight loss. One glass of lassi has approximately 50-80 calories. It also keeps you feeling full for longer. You can drink lassi everyday in the summer. Prefer drinking it as a midmeal – after breakfast and before lunch. Here are some yummy recipes you can try.
