Popular beverages include chai, a spiced tea made with milk and various spices, and lassi, a yogurt-based drink that can be sweet or salty. Other notable drinks are nimbu pani, a refreshing lemonade, and masala chai, which combines tea with aromatic spices. In addition to these, buttermilk is a common drink made from churned yogurt, often flavored with spices.
