Sweet lassi is the one i always love to have anytime. Though i love lassi, i make the salt lassi | neermor, as they are very good for health. My daughter loves all types of lassi. As the kids have holidays, i am making some juice or lassi for them . Today she asked for sweet lassi and i am a mood to click the pictures too. As i have already posted sweet lassi, i thought i will make kesar lassi . The kesar lassi was awesome and she loved it a lot. She infact patiently waited for me to click the pictures.

lovely drink and the presentation…
I tried out but I did nt get the kesar colour like the one you got .
It depends on the colour of saffron.
That’s so delicious and a super drink. I am sure it’ll be tasty without sugar too. Thanks for sharing your recipe.
Thanks a lot
