About Butter Milk / Chaach

Buttermilk, or chaach, is a traditional Indian beverage crafted from chilled curd, black salt, and fresh coriander, blended with cold water for a refreshing drink. This hydrating concoction is more than just delicious—it's a natural remedy against dehydration, especially during the sweltering summer months.

Enriched with cooling spices and minerals, buttermilk soothes the body, helps alleviate prickly heat, and combats general uneasiness caused by heat. Enjoy a glass of this flavorful, tangy drink to stay cool, refreshed, and energized all season long.

Recipe Notes

Additional Tips

For an extra digestive boost, add a pinch of roasted cumin powder and freshly grated ginger while blending—these spices not only enhance flavor but also aid in digestion.
If you prefer a frothier chaach, use a traditional wooden churner (mathani) or a hand blender to vigorously whisk the mixture for a minute before serving.
To make a vegan version, substitute chilled curd with unsweetened coconut or cashew yogurt and proceed with the same seasonings for an authentic taste.
For a visually appealing presentation, serve chaach in earthen cups (kulhads) and garnish with a few coriander leaves or a sprinkle of chaat masala.
