During the summer season, Ayurveda recommends naturally cooling and nourishing drinks to help balance the body’s heat while keeping you refreshed and energized. One such simple and delicious option is mango lassi, made with seasonal ripe mangoes.

The addition of cardamom not only enhances the flavor but also helps balance the natural sweetness of mango while supporting digestion, making it a popular Ayurvedic ingredient in summer beverages.

Ingredients
• 1 cup ripe mango chunks
• ½ cup plain yogurt
• 1 cup water
• A pinch of cardamom

Method
1. Blend all the ingredients until smooth and creamy.
2. Add more water if you prefer a lighter consistency.
3. Serve cool, but not ice-cold, to support digestion.

Enjoying simple, seasonal drinks like mango lassi can help you stay cool, support digestion, and bring a sense of balance and satisfaction during warm days.
