Steps:
- Process peaches, yogurt, vodka, salt, and 1/4 cup honey in a food processor or blender until smooth. Pour peach mixture into a loaf pan (a metal pan will conduct cold more efficiently than tempered glass) and place a piece of parchment paper on top, pressing directly onto surface. Freeze until sorbet is firm, about 6 hours.
- A little before serving, lightly crush half of the blackberries in a small bowl. Add lemon juice, remaining berries, and remaining 2 Tbsp. honey and let sit, tossing occasionally, until berries have released some of their juices, about 20 minutes.
- Scoop sorbet into bowls and top with macerated blackberries.
- Do Ahead
- Sorbet can be made 3 days ahead. Keep frozen. Thaw in refrigerator 30 minutes before scooping into bowls.

Tips:
- Use fresh blackberries for the best flavor. Frozen blackberries can be substituted, but they will not have the same vibrant flavor as fresh berries.
- If you don't have yogurt, you can use kefir or buttermilk instead.
- Add honey or maple syrup to taste. The amount of sweetener you add will depend on how sweet you like your lassi.
- Garnish your lassi with fresh mint leaves or a sprinkle of ground cardamom.
- Serve your lassi chilled. It's the perfect refreshing drink for a hot summer day.
Conclusion:
Blackberry lassi is a delicious and refreshing drink that can be enjoyed anytime. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a healthy and flavorful drink, give blackberry lassi a try!
