Vegan Copper Cup Lassi Smoothie Bowl Recipe

Posted by Andrea Slinde on

Okay so this recipe seems like a bit of a word salad, but I promise the results will be worth it! Let’s dissect each word, starting with ‘Lassi’. A lassi is a traditional Indian yogurt-based beverage that is typically a creamy, smooth, mango flavor. Think of it like a mango milkshake. Lassi drinks are served cold as a refreshing beverage on a hot day or while eating spicy Indian cuisine. Most lassi’s have savory spices like cardamom or ginger to balance the sweet fruit flavor, so we thought it would be only fitting to add our Copper Cup turmeric latte mix!

We put a vegan spin on this recipe by substituting the traditional dairy yogurt base with organic coconut milk & almond milk. We then threw the blended beverage into a bowl and added texture with some nutrient dense toppers. This recipe tastes how I imagine liquid gold would taste. It tastes incredible. My favorite part is the unsweetened coconut flakes that freeze in the smoothie bowl to add the perfect crunch factor.

Yield: 1-2 servings
Prep time: 10 minutes

Ingredients for Smoothie:
1 banana
1 cup frozen mango
1/2 cup ice
Juice of 1/2 lime
1 piece raw ginger
1 piece raw turmeric
1 tablespoon hemp seeds
1/4 cup almond milk
1/2 cup full fat coconut milk
1 tablespoon Nutiva coconut oil
1 sachet or 1 Tbsp of Copper Cup turmeric latte mix

Optional Toppings:
Chia seeds
Banana slices
Unsweetened coconut flakes
Love Grown Raisin Almond Crunch granola

Instructions:
Put all ingredients for the smoothie into a blender and blend until smooth. Add more almond milk to adjust consistency. Pour contents into 1-2 bowls and add arrange desired toppings.
