🍓 🌹 Strawberry Rose & Oat Skyr Lassi 🍓 🌹
An ice-cold drink was always a necessary choice during the hot summers growing up in New England. Coming from an Indian household, lassi, a popular chilled yogurt drink, became our usual refreshment of choice. For this variation, the main flavor base comes from strawberries, which pair well with nutty, Oatmilk Skyr. Rooh Afza is a sweet rose syrup commonly found in South Asia. The syrup is optional in this recipe, though it adds a delicate, floral taste to the drink; you can purchase it online or at specialty South Asian grocery stores.
The recipe itself is quite simple, but I do recommend pureeing the strawberries, ice cubes, and sugar first before adding the rest of the ingredients to ensure any graininess from the sugar fully dissipates.
Ingredients:
1 cup (6oz) whole, hulled strawberries
2 medium ice cubes
2 ½ tablespoons granulated sugar (use less if your strawberries are very sweet, or you prefer drinks that are less sweet)
¼ teaspoon ground cardamom powder
⅛ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon Rooh Afza (rose syrup), optional
1 cup vanilla bean IP Oatmilk Skyr
Instructions:
Place strawberries, ice cubes, and sugar in a blender and puree until smooth. The texture of the puree should not be grainy at all - if it is, continue blending until completely smooth.
Place the rest of the ingredients in the blender and blend again, until smooth.
Chill the lassi for 30 minutes, then pour into glasses and serve. If desired, you can add a few additional ice cubes into each glass for an extra cold refreshment.
