- Shake with ice
- Fine strain into the chilled glass

Tips
- Give it a hard 15-second shake so the 30 ml of yogurt blends smoothly into the vodkas and ginger liqueur.
- Fine strain into the chilled coupe to catch any bits of cardamom husk, so the surface stays smooth for the mint sprig.
History
The Bombay Lassi cocktail takes its name and inspiration from the traditional Indian lassi, a yogurt-based drink, reworking the concept as a shaken cocktail built around yogurt rather than the diluted, non-alcoholic original.
