India is the world’s largest exporter of tea (chai). While tea plants are native to portions of northwestern India, it was only until the British began growing it that it became a staple of everyone’s diet.
Masala Chai- Due to India’s vast cultural cuisine, people developed the masala chai tea drink, which consists of black tea brewed with milk, sugar, and flavorful spices such as ginger, clove, cardamom, and cinnamon. Every Indian household has their own recipe for it.
Assam Chai- As the name implies, Assam tea is a type of black tea native to Assam. This variety of Indian tea is popular not only in India but around the world because of its strong malty flavour and briskness. Assam tea improves mental alertness and helps to prevent diseases such as lung and ovarian cancer.
Green tea- It is not only healthful, but also refreshing! To make fragrant or flavoured teas, certain loose green teas are scented with flowers or combined with fruits. Straight green tea has a refreshing flavour and can instantly raise one’s spirits. Green tea, dubbed the world’s healthiest beverage, is packed with antioxidants and minerals that have strong benefits on the body.
Butter tea- It is also known as Gur Gur Chai in Ladakh and Sikkim, is quite popular. Tea leaves, yak milk butter, water, and salt are used to make it. Himalayan nomads are known to consume over 30 cups of tea every day! This tea, which is also available with cow butter, arrives in little cups that will leave you wanting more.
Kashmiri Kahwa- The Kahwa is an unusual tea with rich flavours that originated in Kashmir’s valleys. This, like other Kashmiri beverages, appears complicated yet is easy to make. All that is necessary is boiling hot water and the addition of cinnamon, saffron, cardamom, and dried rose petals. Green tea leaves should be added to this recipe at the end to make it as strong as desired.
