Got it. I make hot lemonade in the winter when feeling a cold
coming on, too. I also shave lemon curls into my coffee for a
nice fresh taste.

I've never had lassi but I've had buttermilk and found it not
to my liking. My grandfather did, which is why he made his own,
and drank a tall glass ever day. <shudder> I couldn't even
finish a 1/4 pint "juice" glass; still can't. I'll cook with
it, mix it in to assist with product but straight up? Nope; not
a chance. I would bet it's like drinking coffee or scotch
though; if you set your mind to it, you eventually train your
tongue to enjoy it.
