A cooling, refreshing frozen yoghurt drink
Hari says
This is an old school lassi - yoghurt, salt and ice water with served over ice with some cooking herbs. It really is the perfect drink to have in India's hot climate. Not only does it cool you down but it also replenishes those key salt minerals which your body loses in the heat. Yes, we don't have the hot, hot weather but these taste pretty good so do give it a go. If you can't find black salt then just miss it out.
