As the summer season is taking leaps, you would definitely want to drink refreshing coolers that can help you beat the heat. While buying and drinking sodas from the store next door might be a convenient option, it’s not exactly a healthy indulgence that you can rely on a regular basis. Some of the healthiest options are lassi or buttermilk, smoothies, lemonade, etc.
If you’re a Punjabi or travelling to Punjab, you cannot miss having a thirst-quenching glass of lassi. Made from churned curd, lassi is a traditional Punjabi drink that is a summer-special beverage that has a special place in every household. And if you’re in Chandigarh, here are the best spots you should definitely try for a sumptuous glass of lassi, as recommended by the city foodies.
