Lassi and Masala Chaas
Both lassi and buttermilk are classic Indian beverages renowned for their refreshing taste and health benefits. Lassi is made by blending yogurt, water, sugar, and sometimes fruit or spices until smooth, resulting in a creamy and indulgent drink perfect for hot days. Buttermilk, on the other hand, is created by diluting yogurt with water, seasoning it with salt and spices, and serving it chilled, offering a tangy and hydrating alternative that pairs well with spicy dishes.
