This seems to be a perfect cooling drink for the severely hot weather now. I hope sugar can be added to the drink for kids to enjoy more.

I do drink a lot of buttermilk in summer. But now, going to add the cucumber as well.

The cool cool thanda thanda drink to help me soak my inner self in comfort in the piercing hot summers. Just loving it. Thank you for sharing.

Cucumbers and mint along with buttermilk, have such a cooling effect on the stomach and are so desirable in this hot weather! I have a query though – do we use the deseeded cucumber or the whole cucumber for this?

Wowwww! The ingredients, the cool colour n the blend… all sound refreshing. Thank you for this recipe Madhu Ma’am. I will make it minus the chillies😛

Yum so cooling and yummy! I usually make lassi but for hubby I always make buttermilk. Will try this version out!!

This sounds indeed cooler than the usual buttermilk.

My mom used to make a cooler with the same ingredients but without the cucumber. I’m sure it will make it even more refreshing and tasty!

Buttermilk is my go-to drink during summer. And this easy-peasy blend seems like a perfect evolution for my taste buds. Will definitely try it.

Curd drink is a satiating summer drink in Kerala, prepared using homegrown spices. Your recipe made me nostalgic about my home days. Thank you. 🙂

Another way to consume cucumber for this hot summer season. Recently I came across a Maharastrian cucumber sabji. Good way to stay cool. Thank you aunty.

This is exactly how I prepare my chaas, almost everyday, sans the cucumber and black salt. Definitely trying this one tomorrow itself and might replace my chaas recipe with yours if I enjoy it better

I drink buttermilk daily and add some sabja seeds to it. But now I will try out this cucumber buttermilk cooler. I am sure it can cool down parched throats.

Super refreshing for a hot summer day. Easy to find ingredients and even easy to whip up. Will sure give it a try.

I love buttermilk spicy one. We used to made it with jeera, green chilli and little bit of coriander. This one looks tempting. Cucumber is my family favourite. Will give it a try. Thank you for your recipe.

This is so cooling. I love the kick of chillies in it. You know I don’t care for lassi much but this I can have glassfuls.
June 28, 2024 @ 10:10 pm
Wow, lassi is a routine in our home but the cucumber twist will make it the latest fad. Thanks for sharing the recipe 😋
