Instructions
Peel and deseed the lychee and cut the edible flesh part roughly. I got about 100 grams of lychee.
In a blender, add the lychee, sugar, yogurt, water, and 1 tbsp of rose syrup.
Blend it thoroughly. I used my Blendtec and used the smoothie setting.
Now check the consistency and, if required, add more water and pulse it again.
Drizzle some rose syrup and serve right away.
Notes
I usually don't add any ice cubes. But you can add ice-cubes if you prefer your lassi cold.
The rose syrup tends to get settled in the bottom as the lassi stays for a longer time. Make sure to mix the lassi well before serving.
Add sugar or sweeteners of your choice if required.
You can use any plant-based yogurt of your choice and make this a vegan lassi.
Instead of rose syrup, you can add rose water or rose essence. A ¼ tsp of rose essence or 2 tsps of rose water should be sufficient but differ with the brand.
