Mirchi butter milk

Description

Mirchi Buttermilk (often referred to as Challa Mirchi) is a refreshing, spicy drink that combines the cooling properties of buttermilk with the bold kick of green chilies. It’s a popular drink in South India, especially in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, where it’s commonly served during the hot summer months. This drink helps in cooling the body, aids digestion, and can be quite invigorating due to the sharp spiciness of the chilies.
