What do you have as an energy drink after a lovely walk or workout… Some protein powder, I would suggest you to have this healthy smoothie as it has no preservatives and is freshly made with fresh fruits available in the house.
Mango smoothie
My son is a lover of all types of smoothie and milkshakes. This was also his favorite one. After finishing his regular exercise he craves for this.
Smoothie are made with raw fruits and vegetables with your favorite ice-cream, milk and yoghurt as the base same as milkshake.
There are green smoothie with spinach or kale, point is that you can explore with your smoothie.
Today’s smoothie is with mango and banana, instead of Greek yogurt I have used regular curd here.
Lassis are in high demand during summer’s. Every household tries to recreate new recipes to match the tastes buds of our loved ones. So, today it’s mango lassi for everyone. A simple and no fuss recipe to try.
Mango lassi
In my recipes I mostly try to avoid using food colour, as we already intake all these preservatives from the packed food.
Lassi is a traditional drink in India ,flavored with fruits, mint or be it salty. Lassi is an yoghurt based drink. Mango lassi is just like having milkshake.
Drinking Lassi has it’s own benefits. If one is suffering from acidity then this is the best drink for them. Lassi is good for digestion and skin.
Lassi is made with curd, add water to the curd and whisk is, dilute it and Lassi is ready. Add your flavor like if you want it salty or sweet.

Why Jaggery is good for health:
Jaggery/gur

cleanse the body toxins,eases digestion system.Prevents from constipation.
Jaggery is loaded with antioxidants and minerals.If you are working in steel plant industry,so it is highly recommendable to have jaggery aka gur to clear all the toxins in your body,my husband does eat a small piece of jaggery every day as he works in a steel plant.
So it is suggested to have jaggery in Haldi doodh rather than sugar,but if you don’t have jaggery gur then go ahead with sugar.
