Strawberry Lassi

I don't think I'm going to get to make strawberry jam this year.  The sprite's have just about eaten all of the strawberries!  Yes, that means 20lbs of strawberries were eaten in a week!  In their defense, we did have strawberry shortcake twice. And we've also tried out a few other strawberry related recipes that I've found through some of my favorite blogs and websites.  Our favorite, the one that's been repeated almost every night this week, is called a Lassi.  It's a traditional Indian drink usually made with mangoes.  But this recipe calls for strawberries.  It's kind of like a smoothie.  And it's wonderfully refreshing and delicious!  I always think about taking pictures too late so all I'm left to show you is this:


Personally, I think the fact that our glasses are always empty is a testament to the recipe.  This is one you have to try.  And try it now, while the strawberries are in season.  Strawberry drinks are always best with fresh, ripe, sweet berries.  

You can find the recipe at Ambrosia, an easy to follow food blog that I like to check into occasionally. 

 And now I must leave.  I have a little blonde sprite pulling on my sleeves and asking me to make another pitcher.  Hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
