Mango Lassi
This is utterly gorgeous and refreshing. We make it with vegan yoghurt but it can also be made with a plant milk such as coconut, hemp, almond or soya.
If you love mangoes but find them a bit hit and miss in the UK, the good news is that you can buy fresh or frozen chunks (or even tinned purée) from many supermarkets.

Ingredients
- 2 whole ripe mangoes OR 2 cups mango chunks, frozen or fresh OR 1 tin or 1½ cups unsweetened purée
- 2 cups vegan yoghurt, eg Alpro, Tesco, Sojade – or try a coconut milk based vegan yoghurt, eg CoYo or Coconut Collaborative
- ¼ tsp ground cardamom
Optional extras
- Splash of tinned coconut milk (ie the thick stuff)
- Ice cubes
- A splash of lime juice
Instructions
- If using the fresh mango option, peel each mango, slice off the fruit roughly with a sharp knife and add it to the blender. Otherwise add the frozen chunks or tinned purée. Blend with the vegan yoghurt and cardamom.
- Taste. Add more cardamom if desired plus the lime juice/coconut milk/ice cubes if using (you won’t need ice if using the frozen mango!)
- Eat immediately.

We create vital resources to help educate everyone – vegan veterans, novices and the v-curious alike – about vegan food, health and nutrition; as well as the plight of farmed animals and the devastating environmental impact of farming.
Through this work we have helped thousands of people discover veganism; but we want to reach millions more! We rely entirely on donations as we don’t get any government funding.
