Though thandai refers to a traditional festival drink made with various spices and nuts, this versatile drink can also be prepared in many different ways.

Types of Thandai
Name Description
Thandai[1] It is also known as badaam thandai, which is a traditional recipe of drink prepared with exotic nuts and spices.
Rose thandai[2] This version of thandai is made with rose petals and rose essence.
Mango thandai[3] This version of thandai with added mango puree makes a perfect summer cooler drink.
Badaam kesar thandai[4] Made with badaam (almonds) and kesar (saffron), this drink is often consumed during hot summers.
Bhang thandai[5] This variation is a cannabis-infused drink that includes bhang, a preparation of cannabis, and thus contains THC and other cannabinoids, causing an intoxicating effect when consumed. Whole milk is often used because its fat content, along with ground nuts', help dissolve the fat-soluble cannabinoids.
