Capitalise on all of those juicy, brightly coloured mangoes at the supermarket. Create this delicious lassi by popping a few ingredients into a blender — it’s done in minutes. The hint of cardamom is a favourite. I usually add a sneaky bit more.

½ tsp	Ground cardamom (Main)
2 cups	Yoghurt
1 tsp	Runny honey
1 cup	Ice, crushed
1 Tbsp	Chopped mint
