Ingredients:
500 ml. very chilled pasteurised whole milk
2 tbsp. sugar
1/4 tsp. cardamom powder
2 drops vanilla essence
Method:
- Put all ingredients in a nescafe shaker or a tupperware leakproof glass with lid.
- Shake vigorously, up and down at least 25-30 times.
- All the sugar should have dissolved and a thick froth formed on the milk.
- Pour out into tall glasses, serve immediately, while still chilled.
- Any leftover may be refrigerated in shaker, shaken and served later.
- Traditional way to make it:
- Take two tumblers which can pour out easily.
- Pour lassi ingredients in one, hold empty one in other hand.
- Now the contents are poured from one into the other.
- This is done in a brisk motion keeping both tumblers at least 2 feet apart.
- That is the contents are poured from the top one to the bottom tumbler lower down.
- This is done at least 21 one times (a figure fondly used to describe the lassi).
- Pour into drinking glass while still frothy and serve.
