Violet Lassi

This recipe was created because we were at the wonderful Radiance Dairy and wanted to try their yogurt, also their fields were full of violets. These mystical flowers have many health benefits including bountiful Vitamin C and anti-oxidants. To make this recipe, just combine the above ingredients and blend well, if its too thick you can add a little water. The blueberries are included because the violet color didn’t come through when I made it. The blueberries should make it seem a little more like a violet drink. Alternatively, you can take out the honey and blueberries and use this as a sauce for a light fish.

1 cup yogurt (full fat if possible)
3/4 cup violets
2 Tablespoons honey (or more if you like it sweet)
pinch of salt
1/4 cup blueberries (frozen)
