MANGO BUTTERMILK SMOOTHIE



Mango Buttermilk Smoothie image

This mango-banana-strawberry smoothie is inspired by lassi, the creamy yogurt drinks popular throughout India. It's as easy to make as a smoothie should be. Just toss everything into a blender - the flesh of an entire mango, a handful of strawberries, half of a banana, a cup of buttermilk, a bit of honey and a few ice cubes - then blend to cool and creamy perfection. If you don't have fresh mango, frozen works just as well, and if you don't have buttermilk on hand (who does?), plain old yogurt will do just fine. Add a splash of milk to loosen if it gets too thick.
