Not very nutrient rich, but better than aerated sugar laden drinks. For a change I added kalakhatta syrup as this drink tastes nice this way. Coriander, chillies, and other ingredients give it an Indian feel and perk up the taste.
Add soda just before serving. If you want more sweet add sugar subsitute. When you are bored to drinking chaas make this for lunch and enjoy the difference.
