This is a recipe I developed by adapting the recipe
for mango lassi, a traditional Indian beverage. However, I find
cranberry sauce to be very sweet, so I have sugar as an optional
ingredient. If it’s for kids, they’ll probably want sugar.
You could also add vanilla ice cream to make a milk shake. Keep
this drink in mind during the holidays – use nonfat yogurt
and it’ll be one treat that’s not half bad for you.
One 16-ounce
can whole berry cranberry sauce
3 cups plain yogurt (32 ounces)
1/4 cup sugar (optional)
2 cups crushed ice* (see Note)
Process the cranberry sauce in the blender until
it’s no longer jellied. Add remaining ingredients and process
until smooth.
Serves 6
Note: If you don’t have a refrigerator with
a crushed ice function, first process ice with your blender until
you get 2 cups’ worth.
