A copper jug or cup is an integral part of Indian drink ware. These pitchers are used for serving everyday beverages such as water, milk, or the traditional, lassi drink. A lassi is a popular Punjabi yogurt-based beverage in India. It is typically made by blending yogurt with milk or water, as well as Indian spices. The traditional lassi drink is actually savory and sometimes spiced up with roasted ground cumin. On the other hand, the sweet lassi is made by blending yogurt with fruits, spices, sugar, or honey.

Aside from its capacity to keep beverages warm or cold, copper ware also contains antimicrobial properties.

This pitcher has a lot of character however it isn't really large enough to use for more than one person. If for two, expect to drink one round... Stylish but not practical.
