Berry Lassi/Smoothie And Hot days of Summer

Posted on 07:21 by Unknown
Summer...
Shivers of apprehension...
Not because of the temperature...
No way...
It is so warm 41C today...
And nothing cools like yogurt and lassi(Sweetened or spiced buttermilk).
Yes,different glasses...these were try outs...
And when you add to it the beautifully tart red strawberries...
Its like manna from heaven.

Cooling ,refreshing, nutritious,tangy and yummy...
Meets all requisite food groups.
As to why the tiny red rose is sitting pretty...we ate the leftover strawberries.
The guy who runs the cafeteria in school will vouch for that...
Sworn Coffee drinkers are now hooked to Amul Masti Spiced Buttermilk...
The heat saps your energy...
Your electrolyte levels.
You really need it...
I'm teaching the transition to democracy in CHILE,South America...
And I feel the need to be chilled...
Strawberries are almost on their way out...
And one needs to sweeten the lassi...Or Smoothie...
The berries are big.soft and squishy!
And are apt to make the yogurt a pretty pink...

So pretty please with sugar on the top...
Lets make the...

Berry Lassi/Smoothie And Hot days of Summer...

you need

1 punnet /200 gms strawberries
2 tsp sugar or honey
a few leaves fresh mint
200 mils fresh yogurt

The strawberries were large...and sweet ,but a little mushy...
So hull and quarter them...remove the top and cut into 2/4 pieces...
Like so...
Into the blender,with the powdered sugar...save a few berries to add in the end...
OK ,I used a wee bit more than 2 tsp...
Ahhhh....the pure puree...
So we can sorbet it, right here, right now...
Add in the thick yogurt...
With a few leftover strawberries for the texture
A few whizzes and we are done...
3 glasses...one down and the others in a steel bowl into the freezer...
To be had like frozen yogurt...
Or drunk to kiss away the sun and its heat...

PS,the darker drink is yet to come...

Experiments in the sun...trying to create a fire with a magnifying glass...and succeeding!
Summer...
And the ways to combat it...
We are being baked...literally ,when we have to wait at the railroad crossing for the trains to cross...to or from school...
Still reeling from the sun...


So what are you baking today???
