It isn't a surprise that we love sipping on traditional Indian drinks as soon as the summer season starts to roll up. This love has resulted in the origin of countless refreshing beverages, made with simple cooling ingredients that we just can't resist. While aam panna, rose sherbat and lassi are quite common across the country, many of the regional Indian cuisines are a treasure trove of hydrating drinks that are not just delicious but also come with many health benefits.
South Indian cuisine boasts of light, comforting meals and countless beverages that are tempting as well as simple to prepare. Neer Mor (watery buttermilk) is one such popular drink that is a summer essential across homes in Tamil Nadu. A south Indian version of chaas from the north, neer mor (or spiced buttermilk) comes with many variations, depending on the region. While some would churn the curd with a wooden churner and then add spices, others would simply blend everything together. Many households use a host of spices of their choice while some would stick to the usual black pepper and salt. And, while Maharashtrians would call it 'taak', in Andhra, it is known as 'majjiga' and in Karnataka as 'neer majige'.
