About Chaas

Chaas, known as buttermilk in English, is a refreshing, tangy drink rooted in Indian cuisine. Popular in the summer months, it is made by whisking yogurt with water and seasoning it with ingredients like salt, roasted cumin powder, ginger, coriander, and occasionally green chilies. Often enjoyed as a digestive aid, Chaas is rich in probiotics thanks to the fermented yogurt base, which supports gut health and boosts the immune system. Low in calories and fat, it is a hydrating beverage that delivers essential nutrients like calcium, potassium, and Vitamins B12 and D. However, moderation with added salt is recommended for individuals monitoring their sodium intake. A staple in Indian households, Chaas combines nourishment with a cooling effect, making it an ideal companion to spicy meals or a standalone palate cleanser.
