A lassi is a yogurt-based drink popular in India and Pakistan. This version is dairy-free to keep it vegan so it gets its creaminess from creamed coconut instead. For many years, coconut was thought to be an unhealthy food because of its high fat content. Research in recent years has shown, however, that the fat in coconut is unique and provides many health benefits –studies have even shown that regular consumption of coconut oil can actually reduce cholesterol levels and help maintain a healthy weight.
