Prep Time
If you’ve never had a savory lassi before, this is a good one to start with because it’s very mild. Made with Cabot Plain Greek Yogurt, ice water, cucumber, turmeric, fresh lemon juice, a pinch of salt and a garnish of finely shredded mint, this cucumber drink is amazingly refreshing. For more adventurous lassi fans – and for a more pronounced yellow hue – feel free to use a heavier hand with the turmeric.

To make 2 servings of this cucumber drink, puree Cabot Plain Greek Yogurt, ice water, cucumber, turmeric and salt in a blender until completely smooth. Add lemon juice to taste. Enjoy immediately and garnish with mint, if desired.
