Serving assumed: 1 glass ≈ 250 g — salted, spiced, no sugar — the lightest drink on this list. Change the portion and every number below changes with it.
From a table row to one glass
- Read the per-100 g row for chaas (buttermilk) out of the Indian Food Composition Tables 2017 — analysed on Indian samples, so Indian wheat and Indian milk are not swapped for American ones. It gives 30 kcal and 1.6 g protein per 100 g.
- Weigh what is actually served. This site enters 1 glass at 250 g (salted, spiced, no sugar — the lightest drink on this list). That weight is the number other calorie sites decline to state, and it is where their answers stop being answers.
- Multiply, linearly, and print the working: 30 × 250 ÷ 100 = 75 kcal per glass. Nothing is rounded up, adjusted or smoothed — two glasses are exactly twice one.
- Reconcile the energy against its own macronutrients with Atwater factors on every build. A row more than 15% away from 4P + 4C + 9F (20% above 6 g of fibre) stops the build rather than shipping.

What it takes to burn off 3 glasses
Minutes of activity for a 70 kg adult to spend 225 kcal, using MET values from the 2024 Adult Compendium of Physical Activities. This is a scale check, not a licence — appetite rises with activity and the two do not cancel neatly.

Questions
How many calories are in 3 glasses?
About 225 kcal, taking one glass as 250 g (salted, spiced, no sugar — the lightest drink on this list). That is 12.0 g protein, 11.3 g carbohydrate and 15.0 g fat across 750 g of food.
Is 3 glasses too much?
It depends entirely on the rest of the day. 225 kcal is roughly 11% of a 2,000 kcal day and 14% of a 1,600 kcal day. The honest answer is that 3 glasses rarely makes a meal on its own — what goes with it usually decides the total.
How long does it take to burn off 3 glasses?
Roughly 52 minutes of easy walking, 43 minutes of brisk walking or 19 minutes of running for a 70 kg adult. Useful for scale — not a licence, since appetite rises with activity.
Nutrient values are averages for the stated preparation, based on the Indian Food Composition Tables 2017 (ICMR–NIN) and standard recipe analysis. Energy is reconciled against the macronutrients with Atwater factors on every build. General information only — not medical or nutrition advice. Home-cooked Indian food varies enormously with oil, ghee and portion size; every value here is an average for a stated serving, with the assumption shown.
