You may not know it any other way, but thandai can be many other things apart from a drink to make bhaang tasty.
This refreshing milk-based drink can do a wonderful job of keeping you cool in the summer and is a much healthier option than the aerated drinks you guzzle to beat the heat.
Now, thanks to the launch of Paperboat's packaged thandai, the Holi staple started making waves on social media.
Since I don't make Thandai at home, your holi surprise was lovely :) thank you @paperboatdrinkspic.twitter.com/UfsaWnS9Lf
