Description
Simple, soothing, and irresistibly refreshing, Gujarati Buttermilk Chhaas is India’s most loved cooling beverage. Made by whisking thick curd with chilled water and infused with subtle spices, it’s the perfect drink to calm your stomach and refresh your mind.
The secret to authentic Gujarati Chhaas lies in its simplicity. Fresh curd is blended with cold water until frothy, and then seasoned with roasted cumin powder, salt, crushed curry leaves, green chili, ginger, and a pinch of asafoetida. The result is a mildly tangy, slightly spicy, and wonderfully aromatic drink that complements every Indian meal.
Chhaas is more than just a thirst quencher — it’s a natural digestive tonic. It cools the body after spicy food, aids digestion, and keeps you hydrated even in scorching heat. Rich in probiotics and calcium, it’s one of the healthiest traditional drinks you can enjoy daily.
Served chilled in an earthen glass or steel tumbler, Gujarati Buttermilk Chhaas pairs beautifully with thalis, rice dishes, or even light snacks. It’s a drink that brings home comfort wherever you are — simple, pure, and made with love.
The light froth, the aroma of cumin, and the cooling touch of curd make each sip truly refreshing. It’s a reminder that the best things in life are often the simplest — and nothing beats a glass of freshly made Chhaas on a warm afternoon.
