Mango Lassi vs Mango Milkshake
Both sides computed from the same table, at the serving each is actually eaten in.
The short answer
Which one is heavier
Per 100 g, mango milkshake is heavier — 91 kcal against 89 kcal for mango lassi, about 2% more. Per real serving the picture changes: 1 glass of mango lassi is 223 kcal, while 1 glass of mango milkshake is 228 kcal, because the portions are not the same size. On protein, mango milkshake wins with 2.5 g per 100 g.

How two dishes are made comparable
- Both columns start from the same source — the per-100 g rows for mango lassi and mango milkshake in the Indian Food Composition Tables 2017. Neither side is taken from a different database to win an argument.
- Each dish keeps its own serving weight: 1 glass at 250 g, 1 glass at 250 g. Forcing both onto a shared 100 g is what makes most food comparisons useless.
- Both rows are then scaled the same way and printed side by side, so the per-gram ranking and the per-plate ranking can visibly disagree — which, on Indian food, they routinely do.
Mango Lassi 89 kcal/100 g × 250 g ÷ 100 = 223 kcal Mango Milkshake 91 kcal/100 g × 250 g ÷ 100 = 228 kcal
How to read this
Per-100 g comparisons flatter whatever is eaten in small portions. Mango Milkshake is denser per gram, but people do not eat by the gram — mango lassi arrives as 1 glass and mango milkshake as 1 glass, and that is where the real difference shows up.
Mango Milkshake carries more protein, which matters more than the calorie gap if you are trying to stay full. Both figures assume home cooking with a measured amount of oil; a restaurant plate of either can run 30 to 60% higher.
ਸਵਾਲ
Which has more calories, mango lassi or mango milkshake?
Per 100 g, mango milkshake is heavier — 91 kcal against 89 kcal for mango lassi, about 2% more. Per real serving the picture changes: 1 glass of mango lassi is 223 kcal, while 1 glass of mango milkshake is 228 kcal, because the portions are not the same size.

Which has more protein, mango lassi or mango milkshake?
Mango Milkshake — 2.5 g per 100 g against 2.1 g. Per real serving that becomes 6.3 g in 1 glass against 5.3 g in 1 glass.
Why do the two comparisons disagree?
Because a per-100 g comparison flatters whatever is eaten in small portions. 1 glass of mango lassi weighs 250 g and 1 glass of mango milkshake weighs 250 g, so the per-gram ranking and the per-plate ranking are answering different questions. The serving row is the one that decides what you ate.
