A strong cup of India chai helps kickstart the day and feel rejuvenated in the evening after several hours of work. It also acts as a mid-day energy booster for millions of people. India’s chai has become synonymous with tea in many countries.
While the industrial mass production of tea happened only during British rule, ancient India did have its own Ayurvedic practices that involved tea drinking for medical purposes. The Silk Route trade route between India, China, the Middle East, and Europe promoted the use of spices in tea. This led to the phenomenon of masala tea/ chai, which gained global acclaim in the 21st century.
Today, there are many best masala tea brands in India, Vahdam being one of them for providing organic tea blends of premium quality to tea lovers from different regions.
Every Cup of Chai is Unique
The British may have been particular about brewing tea a certain way, but Indians have created their own methods and recipes over the years. What the world knows as the Indian chai is a combination of these, though it is hard to determine the exact origin of the masala chai.
Generally, the chai blend contains black tea leaves (Assam, Darjeeling, etc.), cardamom, bay leaves, cinnamon, black pepper, ginger, cloves, etc.
The best Indian chai has a strong malty taste of tea with a noticeable hint of spices. It tastes good with milk and sugar or can be consumed black with/ without a sweetener. Let the leaves steep longer if you want a richer flavor with a bitter note.
