ayurvedic notes
The many cooling and heating spices ignite the appetite despite heavy yogurt! As a lassi, can be drying and constipating. As a shake, too filling to stimulate agni.
about
Fresh minty green chili and cilantro yogurts take me back to supple jackfruits hanging from the tropical arms of Bangladesh. I can almost feel the humidity and mosquitoes as I eat green mangoes with mustard and lime on my way to a wedding. Borhanis are a traditional wedding drink in Bengal.

Coriander Seed
Vata aggravating
Exercise caution with Coriander Seed in 'Fall / Winter' because it is vata aggravating. Eating too much of Coriander Seed could create an imbalance.

Tip: As you learn more Ayurveda, you'll find other ingredients to balance Coriander Seed. To adjust recipes, use the substitute button 'Ayurvedic Diet'.

What to do about exclamation points?
preparation
Mix all the ingredients together and blend. Some people strain the yogurt to make it thicker. Or, for a thinner lassi style, you can substitute half the yogurt with water.
