Thand’ in Hindi means cold, and therefore thandai refers to ‘a refreshing drink that has a cooling effect.’
Thandai is an Indian cold drink prepared with a mixture of almonds, fennel seeds, watermelon seeds,rose petals, pepper, poppy seeds, cardamom, saffron, milk and sugar. It is most commonly consumed in north India. I have made Kesar Thandai for Holi for my loved ones and shred my receipe with my extended cookpad family.
