Thandai
per real serving, not per 100 g
What 1 glass carries
260kcal
1 glass — taken as 200 g — carries about 260 calories, with 7.0 g protein, 32.0 g carbohydrate and 11.6 g fat.
Per 100 g: 130 kcal ਅਤੇ 3.5 g protein.

Assumed: 1 glass ≈ 200 g — milk with nuts, melon seeds, fennel and sugar.
Thandai by portion
Everything scales linearly from the 200 g serving. If your portion is bigger, so is the number.
| Portion | Grams | Calories | Protein | Carbs | Fat | Fibre |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 × 1 glass | 200 g | 260 kcal | 7.0 g | 32.0 g | 11.6 g | 1.2 g |
| 2 × 1 glass | 400 g | 520 kcal | 14.0 g | 64.0 g | 23.2 g | 2.4 g |
| 3 × 1 glass | 600 g | 780 kcal | 21.0 g | 96.0 g | 34.8 g | 3.6 g |
| Per 100 g | 100 g | 130 kcal | 3.5 g | 16.0 g | 5.8 g | 0.6 g |
Carbohydrate is available carbohydrate; fibre is listed separately and is in neither the carbohydrate column nor the energy figure. Energy is reconciled against 4P + 4C + 9F on every build.

How thandai is counted here
- The serving is the portion this food is actually eaten in — 1 glass, taken as 200 g — not an anonymous 100 g.
- Composition is read off a named row: Recipe analysis, and the label on that row is printed above rather than hidden.
- Carbohydrate is available carbohydrate. Where a source publishes carbohydrate by difference, the fibre is subtracted here and the subtraction is stated.
- Energy is reconciled against Atwater factors on every build; a value that disagrees with its own macros does not ship.
serving kcal = 130 kcal/100 g × (200 g ÷ 100) = 260 kcal check = 4·P + 4·C + 9·F (±15%, ±20% high-fibre)

Where it sits on a fasting plate
Among the 10 entries in drinks & sweeteners on this site, thandai ranks 4 of 10 for energy density at 130 kcal per 100 g.
Protein supplies 11% of its energy. That is respectable for the permitted list, but a whole day built on foods like this will still run short — see ਵਰਤ ਦੌਰਾਨ ਪ੍ਰੋਟੀਨ.
It sits mid-range for energy density, so a measured portion behaves predictably.
ਸਵਾਲ
Is thandai eaten during a vrat?
It is commonly eaten during a phalahar vrat in most households. Customs differ by family, region and community — this describes what is usual, not what is required. On this site it appears in the food list for Maha Shivratri.
How many calories are in 1 glass of thandai?
About 260 kcal for 1 glass, taken as 200 g (milk with nuts, melon seeds, fennel and sugar). That is 7.0 g protein, 32.0 g carbohydrate and 11.6 g fat. Per 100 g it carries 130 kcal.
Is thandai filling, or just energy?
Protein supplies about 11% of its energy, which is moderate. Pair it with curd, milk or nuts where your observance permits. Fibre is low at 0.6 g per 100 g. On a vrat that matters more than usual, because so much of the permitted food list is rapidly digested starch.

Practices are described as commonly observed; customs differ by family, region, community and sampradaya, and this site is not an authority on any of them. Food values come from the Indian Food Composition Tables 2017 (ICMR–NIN), the older ICMR–NIN tables, USDA FoodData Central, named composition studies and the shared ThaliFacts dataset, reconciled against Atwater factors on every build. Which source applies to which food is listed per food, and every source carries the date it was last checked. General information only — not medical or religious guidance. Fasting is not safe for everyone, particularly during pregnancy or with diabetes or other conditions. Speak to a doctor first.
