Sweet Cucumber Lassi

Cucumber lassi is a wonderful refreshing drink and a brilliant cooler, that I make for my husband. I simply love this yogurt based drink, it's easy and simple to make and tastes awesome! There are two ways to make this drink, one is with sugar and the other is with salt and spices. This is the sweet version and I will post the salted version later. 
I love to make variations to the simple lassi, makes it more yum! I have already posted a strawberry lassi and a mango lassi, check that out as well.

Notes
1. This makes a thick lassi. If you prefer a thinner lassi, add 1.5 cups of water.
