Majjige buttermilk, a traditional South Indian beverage, is a refreshing and healthful drink made from diluted yogurt. Typically flavored with ingredients like ginger, green chilies, curry leaves, and coriander, it provides a cooling effect, especially during hot weather. This probiotic-rich drink aids in digestion and is often consumed after meals to soothe the stomach. The preparation of majjige varies across regions, with some adding a tempering of mustard seeds and asafoetida for an extra burst of flavor.
Majjige is a refreshing and tangy summer drink in Karnataka. This beverage is good for the summer months. Moreover, it’s a blending flavor that captures the essence of Karnataka’s rich heritage.
