Notes

Thandai is quite tasty and is very beneficial as it has some really natural and cooling ingredients.

For Holi, you can add some bhang to the thandai for that added kick. Bhang leaves can be ground or added. They don't have any taste just a dark green colour and are an intoxicant. I generally avoid it.
