Peach Lassi

"A wonderful fruity beverage based on an easy to make peach puree. The Lassi is spiced by a hint of Cayenne. You can vary the amount of peach puree and Lassi mixture to have a more thinner Lassi styled beverage or thicker to have a more peachy refresher. Refreshing on a summer afternoon as a beverage or after a dinner as a dessert of a different kind. You can make the peach puree in advance, but "hide" it in the fridge, because if someone will find it, it will be gone before you can use in this Lassi."

  2. Thorsten, This was wondefully refreshing, and very different with the cayenne notes coming though. I put peaches on the shopping list and DH came home with ones so hard that you could pave the street with them.. and necterines that were ripening FAST.. so mine turned into a Necterine Lassi :) Not the sort of substitution I usually do when making something for the first time, but it was a pity to waste the necterines while the peaches could have caused bodily harm to the blade in the food processor :) I don't think it really matters if You use different stone fruits, this is GEORGOUS ! I will be making this again as soon as my peaches go soft enough and I think that I will be making this often anyway as it's simple to make ahead and put into the fridge. You are right about hiding it...I should have hid it from myself LOL.. I intended to keep some for the next day dessert, but ended up going back to the fridge and eating the second serving ! Please see my rating system: an excellent 5 stars :) Thanks !
     
  3. Well this is the first time I have ever tried Lassi, in fact, I had never heard of it before! It was terrific! I used fresh lemon balm from my garden and locally grown peaches. What a treat! Although this was my first time trying this, it sure won't be my last! Thanks for another great recipe Thorsten!
