Joy the Baker's Mint and Cumin Salted Lassi promotes an alternative summertime drink. While many such beverages make use of sweet syrups and saccharine flavors, Joy has shaken up the status quo with an exceptionally salty recipe.
The blogger put together this post after doing only culinary searches. She came upon the classic Lassi, and instead chose to place her own twist on the concoction here.
A yogurt base makes the refreshment quite thick. Fresh mint and cumin cool it down however, making it a fresh option that can easily be served with beginning of the season meals. Coarse sea salt is then used as the final topping, giving way to its unusually savory taste.
