Our take

CleanPlate review

Real dahi, a lot of sugar.

Amul Sweet Lassi is made from toned milk dahi, water and sugar, with rose flavouring and a pectin stabiliser.

CleanPlate scores it CA3. The C for nutrition reflects modest protein once diluted. The A for ingredients reflects a short, dairy-first list. The 3 for risk is set by sugar, which supplies about 60% of the calories.

Common misconceptions

Myth: "Lassi is a healthy drink"

Plain lassi or chaas is. Sweet lassi carries a lot of sugar.

Myth: "It is basically curd"

It is diluted curd with sugar, so protein per glass is lower.

How often, and how

  • AdultsOccasional; prefer chaas daily
  • ChildrenOccasional treat
  • DiabeticsAvoid

Smarter ways to eat it

Make it at home

Blend curd with water, a pinch of cardamom and a little sugar or a date.

Choose chaas

Salted buttermilk gives the same cooling effect without the sugar.
