If you’re looking for the perfect drink to quench your thirst on a hot summer day, then my Strawberry Coconut Lassi is for you.  Lassi is a classic yogurt-based Indian drink.  Served cold, lassi can be savory or sweet.  I grew up drinking salted lassis in the summertime, which my parents would make by blending yogurt with ground cumin, salt and ice.  Sweet lassi, on the other hand, is made by blending yogurt with sugar or fruit along with other flavorings like cardamom and rose water.  Mango lassi, which is very popular in Indian restaurants, is made with yogurt and mango puree.  You can make your own flavor lassi at home by blending yogurt with your favorite fruit and sweetener.  Any type of berry or tropical fruit like papaya, pineapple or banana would work well in this recipe.  You could even try making it with stone fruit like peaches, plums or nectarines.
