Allergen Information
Nutritional Summary
The product receives a poor rating primarily due to its extremely high content of added sugar, with a single 180ml serving containing 21.6g, which is 43.2% of the recommended daily allowance (RDA) by FSSAI. While it is low in fat and sodium and provides some calcium, the excessive sugar content makes it an unhealthy choice for regular consumption and outweighs the minor benefits.

Healthy Recipe Ideas
Lassi Smoothie Bowl
1. Pour the Lotus Lassi into a blender. 2. Add half a banana, a handful of spinach, and 2-3 unsalted almonds. 3. Blend until smooth and pour into a bowl. 4. Top with chia seeds and a few pieces of fresh fruit for added fiber and nutrients.
Health Benefits
This transforms the high-sugar drink into a more balanced meal with added fiber, vitamins, and healthy fats from fruits, nuts, and seeds.
Savory Lassi Marinade for Paneer/Chicken
1. In a bowl, mix the Lotus Lassi with ginger-garlic paste, turmeric, and cumin powder. 2. Use this mixture to marinate paneer or chicken cubes for at least 30 minutes. 3. Grill or pan-fry the marinated pieces until cooked through. 4. Serve with a side of salad.
Health Benefits
Using the lassi as a marinade helps tenderize protein while diluting its high sugar content across a full meal.
Additive Analysis
The product contains several stabilizers (INS 466, INS 451(i), INS 331(iii), INS 415, INS 450) and a nature-identical rose flavour. These additives are approved by FSSAI and are generally considered safe for consumption within prescribed limits. However, the presence of multiple additives makes it a processed beverage, less desirable than homemade lassi.

Marketing Claims
The claim 'Source of Calcium & Protein' is technically true as the product contains both nutrients. However, it is questionable as it highlights minor benefits while omitting the most significant nutritional fact: the extremely high sugar content. This positions a sugar-laden beverage as a healthy choice, which could mislead consumers seeking nutritious options.
