Buttermilk / Chaas / Mattha / Masala Chaas are the common names by which this beverage is known in India. It is called Mor in Tamil, Mooru in Malayalam and Majjige in Kannada and Telugu.
Buttermilk was traditionally made by churning yogurt (dahi) and cold water together in a pot using a hand-held instrument called madhani. This can be consumed plain or seasoned with a variety of spices.
