Holi 2022: Besides colours and gulaal, thandai is probably the first thing we associate with Holi. Thandai is one of the major attractions at any Holi party and we never get bored of the same drink every year. In fact, we can drink up glasses of thandai at one go. It is basically a refreshing milkshake, made with oodles of nuts and spices. Also called sardai, this special drink is native to India and is prepared extensively during Holi and Shivratri. We are all set to celebrate Holi in just a few days, which means, it is time for us to get hold of all the essential ingredients to prepare this delish drink for the festive fare.
