Salted Cucumber Lassi – Yogurt Drink

Salted Cucumber Lassi – Indian Savory Yogurt Drink: traditional drink from India using yogurt (curd/dahi), cucumber (kheera), salt, and roasted cumin seeds. Perfect on a hot day and good for digestion.

Come summer and all you wanna do is have lots and lots of chilled shakes/drinks and the first thing that comes to my mind is a fresh n chilled “Lassi” (Yogurt Drink) a traditional drink from India, made from yogurt, water and sweet/salt. We do have many versions of lassi but my personal favorite is the salted lassi with some kind of flavor.

Here’s the recipe for “Chilled Salted Cucumber Lassi” which is extremely simple, equally delicious, and needs two main ingredients that most of us have in our kitchen.

Also, Yogurt, Cucumber, and Cumin are all cooling agents hence great for our digestion especially in summer. It’s also a great beverage for people who follow a low-calorie diet (Just substitute it with fat-free yogurt)
