Taste and serve
Taste and adjust — more syrup if the mango was sharp, more plant milk if you want it pourable rather than spoonable. Serve very cold over ice.
Notes
The mango must be properly ripe; underripe fruit makes a thin, sour lassi no amount of syrup will save. Frozen mango works well and gives a thicker drink — skip the ice if you use it. The pinch of salt is what makes the fruit taste more like itself.
