Cucumber lassi recipe - Kakdichi lassi

cucumber lassi ready to serve
Cucumber lassi or kakdichi recipe - We all Indians suffer from scorching heat and very often make some cool drinks such as lassi, sharbat, lemonade, fruit juice, panna, etc. to beat the heat. Whatever the fruit I bring I blend it to a smooth puree, chill it in the refrigerator and serve as a drink.
