Read MoreDrinking Chaas for the first time in six years!
What is Chaas?
Chaas is often described as a yogurt drink. It's usually made of 4 ingredients - yogurt, water, salt and cumin. It is popular in the Indian states Gujarat and Rajasthan, where it is drunk with the main meal.

Find out how I excited I was to find a vegan alternative!

Read MoreOrchard View naturals
I came across Orchard View naturals on Twitter and soon realised that the whole range is vegan. This is quite rare, in that there are other companies who have both, vegan and non-vegan skincare products for sale. I tend to want to buy from companies where I know I can buy anything and not have to worry about policy changes or checking the ingredients each time I buy!
