Notes

  1. Measuring units used, 1 cup = 240 ml & 1 tablespoon = 5 ml.
  2. Homemade yogurts work wonderfully well for this recipe. You can also use store bought ones. 
  3. If using Greek yogurt use ¾ cup yogurt instead of 1 cup. You may even thin it out with a little more water.
  4. Chill the water & the yogurt before making the Masala Chaas.
  5. If you want you may skip the cilantro, mint & also the chilies. But, the herbs are very much recommended because they add a flavor boost + makes the drink refreshing.
  6. The Masala Chaas is best enjoyed fresh & chilled.
  7. Adjust the spice level & the heat in the recipe. Going easy on the spices will guarantee best flavors.
  8. You may use white pepper powder in the Chaas Masala Spice mix.
