Masala Buttermilk

(Chaas) Cooler Recipe

Spicy masala buttermilk, also known as chaas, is a refreshing yoghurt-based drink that is a staple across India. Light, cooling, and bursting with flavour, this traditional beverage is made by blending yoghurt with water, fresh ginger, green chilli, cilantro, and a mix of aromatic spices. It’s not only deeply refreshing but also known for aiding digestion and keeping the body cool, especially during warm weather. Valued for its natural probiotics and low-calorie profile, spicy masala buttermilk is often enjoyed after meals to help balance flavours and soothe the stomach. Ingredients such as roasted cumin, curry leaves, and coriander enhance both taste and digestive benefits, making this drink a healthy alternative to sugary refreshments. Buttermilk's gentle heat and tangy notes stimulate the appetite while remaining light and comforting. Served chilled or at room temperature, spicy masala buttermilk is a versatile drink that pairs well with everyday meals or can be enjoyed on its own for instant refreshment.
