Raspberry Smoothie / Raspberry Lassi



Thirst quenching smoothies are always healthier, a great energizing drink especially after doing  rigorous workouts. At home, we are smoothie lovers and we love to transform any fruits into lassi/smoothie form for a refreshing dessert. Fresh sweet and tangy raspberries are seen everywhere in the markets during this summer.  To enjoy these mini berries, I made a super cool raspberry lassi / smoothie along with our tomato basil pasta salad. Try this out and enjoy your summer with healthy desserts. 

Somehow, I prefer to give these healthy smoothies to kids at any time rather than offering them unhealthy desserts like sugar candy, gelato, sugar coated creamy pastry, desserts made with high fat whipped cream.

Ingredients
Fresh ripe raspberries - 2 Cups
Greek Yogurt or regular yogurt - 2 cups
Ice Cubes - 4 or 5
Honey - 2 tbsp
Sugar - 4 tsp ( optional , you can omit if you enjoy the slight tangyness of raspberries )
Water - 1 glass
Method
Put all the ingredients into the mixer grinder and grind them using the whipper for few rounds.When the smoothie is done to your satisfaction, transfer them into serving glasses. Decorate the drink with one or two fresh raspberries on its top and serve.
