This creamy-chilled drink is purely delicious. Lassi becomes famous drink all-over India, because lassi is very good specially during hot summer days and not only as beverage but this also works as great appetizer.
Cucumber Lassi is easy, quick lassi recipe with addition of cucumber, mint leaves, coriander leaves and curd. If you like lassi then you will love this one too. This namkeen(salted) lassi would be great appetizer or even as quick breakfast.
I always like refreshing cucumber in beverages and one of my favorite is Cucumber Lemonade which I make the most and this lassi is something that I wanted to post for long time and finally this is happening!
You can make end number of lassi like black-grapes lassi, masala buttermilk and chilled mango lassi
