Peach Lassi

Cool down with this creamy, cardamom-kissed peach lassi made from sweet, ripe peaches and tangy Greek yogurt. It’s quick, refreshing, and just as perfect for a summer afternoon as it is for breakfast on the go.

Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 2-3 large peaches, peeled, pitted, and cut into pieces (about 2 cups)
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • ½ cup milk
  • 1-2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • ¼ tsp cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp cardamom
  • pinch of salt

Optional Garnish

  • sprig of mint
  • diced peaches
  • a few blueberries
  • shredded coconut
  • chopped or ground pistachios
  • chia seeds
  • dusting of ground cinnamon, nutmeg, or cardamom
  • light swirl of mango puree or another fruit puree
  • drizzle of raspberry sauce

Instructions
 

  • Place all ingredients into a blender.
  • Purée until smooth.
  • Adjust the sweetness, as desired.
  • Chill in the fridge before serving or pour over ice cubes. Garnish as desired.

Notes

  • For a dairy-free version, use plant-based yogurt and dairy-free milk. See specific recommendations above.
  • If using sweetened yogurt, skip the honey or maple syrup until after tasting and add only if needed.
  • For a thicker lassi, reduce the milk slightly.
  • If fresh peaches aren’t in season, use frozen peaches — no need to thaw first. They’ll give the lassi a slightly thicker, smoothie-like texture.
  • Mix things up by substituting the peaches for other summer fruits or seasonal fruits. Or give a slight nod to the most famous lassi of all by whipping up a mango peach lassi using one cup of diced mango and one cup of peach slices.
  • No cardamom? Try ground ginger for a different warming spice profile, or skip the spices altogether for a pure fruit flavor.
  • Pump up the protein by adding a scoop of unflavored or vanilla plant-based protein powder.
  • Pop your serving glasses in the freezer for 10–15 minutes before pouring the lassi to keep it colder longer.
