Tea the Indian way is rich and milky. deeply colored, flavorful, sweet, and steaming hot. Millions of Indians having this kind of version and its close to them. Simply in Hindi language Tea is known as "Chai".
It's a various kind of Chai available in India. Different regions of people like Masala Chai, which is spices in it. The Masala Chai is delicious Indian milk tea made with blend of spices such as Cloves, Cinnamon, Ginger, green Cardamom and more.
Masala = Spices.
There is not a single recipe of Tea. Every Indians have their own method like Indian Curry. If you visit India, you'll find chai-walas on every corner, calling aloud "chai! chai! chai!". Same at railway stations and pouring steaming tea from a distinct height i.e. Pulling Chai, allowing it to cool a bit as it streams into little metal cups or glasses.
Chai is not just a drink. It is a feeling- if people crave to drink something nice, they need the chai. If people feel tired, they need it. If feeling sad, happy, or sitting without doing anything, again they desperately need it. However, Indian needs chai in changing of weather like- in raining season, they love badly.
What do we know about drinking? Generally, if a person is feeling cold, then we offer them a hot beverage. But Indian have their own definition of having this tea. They can have it anytime, anywhere and anyone. Sometimes, the welcome drink in India is Chai. However, it is the tastiest tea you've ever tasted, and I could drink as much as I can.
