Come summer, sweet-fleshed mangoes begin appearing in Indian markets. Chilled drinks become an everyday necessity. Establishments selling sugarcane juice, creamy sherbets, and buttermilk do brisk business. In Punjab, the drink of choice is the lassi, made from beaten full-fat yogurt that is salted or sweetened with sugar. Traditionally, the first step to making a lassi involves setting a bowl of full-fat milk into curd. The cap of thick cream that settles on the curd is scooped off and set aside, and the rest of the yogurt is whisked by hand with a wooden churn until it is light and frothy. Into this goes a shower of sugar, and a block of ice to keep the lassi cool. Finally, it is all poured into a kulhad or clay cup, crowned with the scooped-off cream, and served. In a mango lassi, the buttermilk is brightened with mango and served chilled.

A bill quietly introduced this spring in the Colorado legislature to decriminalize the possession of drug paraphernalia obtained by harm reductionists has become law. As low-key as the legislation was introduced, the bill was signed into law without fanfare June 6. It garnered little to no media attention.
