Chaas

It's definitely heating up for summer! My Indian friends gave me this great recipe for a drink that keeps you cool, and replaces salt lost from sweating. It's called chaas, and the savoury ingredients may initially intimidate you, but I suggest making a small amount, very cold, and see if you like it. I love it :)

Ingredients:

  • 2 generous tbsp natural yoghurt
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 400ml cold water
  • a handful of ice
  • 1/4 tsp crushed, toasted cumin seeds (optional)

Combine all of the ingredients in a glass and whisk until combined. Drink cold or keep for up to a couple of days.
