(Don't ask me about the addition of salt--I don't understand it.). The rosewater ones are pleasant.<BR/><BR/>There is another type of drink out there on the market called Kefir, which is a pro-biotic type of yogurt drink, which has fruit. Similar concept, though less emphasis on sugar and more emphasis on the microbes.<BR/><BR/>Lassis actually come in handy if you're eating spicy food such as a spicy Vindaloo from the Goa region of India; or eating some firey food from Andhra; dairy really does cut the heat of a chile. And I have yet to meet a chile as hot as a chile from Andhra.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5541500.post-57618873782544824142007-09-20T20:56:00.000+09:002007-09-20T20:56:00.000+09:00It's an Indian beverage made from fruit juice and ...It's an Indian beverage made from fruit juice and yogurt.
