Cannabis in India has been thought to be used at least as early as 2000 BCE though linguistic evidence demonstrates that it may not have been used until the 11th century. In Indian society, common terms for cannabis preparations include charas (resin), ganja (flower), and bhang (seeds and leaves), with Indian drinks such as bhang lassi and bhang thandai made from bhang being one of the most common legal uses.
