What is Lassi?

Lassi is a traditional Indian beverage that is made from yogurt. It is a popular and refreshing drink enjoyed throughout India. Lassi has a creamy texture and a tangy flavor, which makes it a delightful and cooling option, especially during hot summer days.

It is often served chilled and can be flavored with various ingredients like fruits, spices, or syrups. Lassi is not only a delicious drink but also a part of Indian culture and cuisine enjoyed for its unique taste and refreshing qualities.

About the rose lassi recipe

Rose lassi is a refreshing drink made with rose-flavored syrup. A twist to our traditional yogurt lassi gives it a nice pink color and delicious taste. Ideally, it can be served as a summer drink but can also be enjoyed in any weather.

Refreshing rose lassi is usually made with three ingredients – Thick full-fat curd/yogurt, rose syrup, and powdered sugar. As I don’t use much sugar in my sweet dishes or drink and the rose syrup already contains sugar, I skipped adding extra sugar here. So my recipe is very easy and quickly made with just two ingredients.

I recommend you use good-quality rose syrup. I have used Roohafza to make this lassi, but you can use any other brand. Also, lassi tastes best when it is chilled so either you can use ice cubes while making lassi or make it without ice cubes and refrigerate for at least half an hour.

Essential Ingredients for Refreshing Rose Lassi

To prepare a delicious rose lassi, you will need a handful of essential ingredients. Here’s a list of what you’ll need:

Curd/Yogurt: The base of rose lassi is made with thick and creamy curd or yogurt. This ingredient provides the tangy and creamy texture that characterizes lassi.

Rose Syrup: The star ingredient of rose lassi is fragrant and sweet rose syrup. It infuses the drink with its distinctive floral flavor and adds a beautiful pink hue to the lassi.
Cardamom Powder: A pinch of cardamom powder is often added to enhance the taste and aroma of the rose lassi. It adds a subtle hint of warmth and a delightful spice note.
Sugar (optional): To balance the tartness of the yogurt and the floral sweetness of the rose syrup, a small amount of sugar is commonly added. The quantity can be adjusted according to personal preference.

Chopped Nuts (for garnishing): Optional, but often added for a delightful crunch and added texture. Chopped nuts like almonds, pistachios, or cashews can be sprinkled on top of the lassi as a garnish.

These ingredients work harmoniously together to create a delightful rose lassi, offering a perfect blend of creamy yogurt, sweet rose flavor, and a touch of aromatic spices. Remember to adjust the quantities of sugar and rose syrup based on your taste preferences, and feel free to experiment with additional ingredients or variations to make it your own signature rose lassi recipe.
