Confession Tuesday.

I have a confession.

I've been slacking in the kitchen department. Cooking department? I don't know. I just don't want to eat anything remotely hot at the moment. Maybe because I don't want to turn the stove on because it takes too much energy. Energy --> calorie burning --> sweat.

And no one likes sweat.

Okay, I do. But sweat has a time and a place. And the place is not in the kitchen whilst cooking.

I'll get over this phase by tomorrow. But for now, let's talk about this icy mango lassi that I finally got to make with a ripe mango! (I'm really on a roll with the Indian recipes lately, eh?).

Mango Lassi


Ingredients:

• 1 ripe mango, roughly chopped
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1/2 teaspoon brown rice syrup (or 1-2 teaspoons sugar)
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 4-5 ice cubes

Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.

Drinking it by the poolside is optional.

Mmm...mangoes. Fun fact: I used to be allergic to mangoes. Thank goodness that allergy magically disappeared.
