Why You’ll Love This Mango Lime Lassi
This recipe hits a rare sweet spot: it tastes like a tropical treat, yet it’s packed with ingredients that support steady energy and overall wellness. Coconut yogurt brings a creamy, tangy base without dairy, frozen mango delivers natural sweetness (and that frosty milkshake vibe), and kiwi plus lime add a zippy, refreshing finish.

Health Benefits of Jade Mango Lime Lassi
- Fiber-rich and satisfying: Chia seeds and rolled oats contribute soluble fiber that can help you feel full longer. That makes this lassi a smart choice when you want something that holds you over until your next meal.
- Vitamin-packed fruits and greens: Mango and kiwi bring a range of vitamins and antioxidants, while spinach adds nutrients like folate and vitamin K—without overpowering the taste.
- Hydrating and refreshing: Cold water, ice, and juicy fruits make this an excellent option for warm days or after exercise, when you want something light and replenishing.
- Ginger and lime for a bright, digestive-friendly kick: Fresh ginger is commonly enjoyed for its soothing qualities, and lime juice adds acidity that balances sweetness and wakes up the palate.
- Balanced flavor without added sugar: Using unsweetened coconut yogurt and naturally sweet fruit keeps the profile fresh and clean. The pinch of sea salt sharpens the fruit flavors and can help prevent the drink from tasting flat.
Tips for the Best Texture
- Start with less water: Begin with 1/4 cup, blend, then add more as needed. This helps you keep a thick, spoonable lassi texture if that’s your preference.
- Let chia thicken (optional): If you like a thicker drink, blend and then let it sit for 3–5 minutes so the chia seeds can gel slightly before serving.
- Use ripe kiwi: A ripe kiwi is sweeter and smoother in the blend. If it’s very tart, you may want an extra piece of mango or a splash more coconut yogurt.
Variations to Try
- Protein-boosted lassi: Add an extra spoonful of coconut yogurt, or blend in your favorite neutral protein (plant-based or otherwise) to turn this into a more substantial breakfast smoothie.
- Extra-creamy version: Reduce the water and add a bit more coconut yogurt. You’ll get a thicker, dessert-like lassi that’s perfect in a chilled glass.
- Spicier ginger-lime twist: If you love zing, add a little more grated ginger and an extra squeeze of lime juice. The combo makes the mango taste even brighter.
- More greens (still delicious): Increase the spinach for a deeper jade color and more nutrients. Mango is an excellent “masking” fruit, so the flavor stays tropical.
- Kiwi swap options: If you’re out of kiwi, you can keep the same tangy vibe with a small piece of pineapple or a few slices of cucumber for freshness and a lighter taste.
- Overnight oats smoothie: Blend the base ingredients (minus ice), refrigerate overnight, then blend quickly with ice in the morning. The oats soften and the texture becomes extra silky.
Conclusion
This Jade Mango Lime Lassi is a fast, flavorful way to bring tropical brightness into your routine—creamy coconut yogurt, sweet mango, tangy lime, and a pop of green goodness all in one glass. Whether you’re looking for a refreshing breakfast, a nourishing snack, or a feel-good smoothie that tastes like a mini vacation, this recipe delivers. Blend, taste, adjust, and enjoy it immediately while it’s perfectly cold and vibrant.
