Black tea with milk is a popular beverage in many cultures, particularly in South Asian, British, and East Asian cuisines. The drink combines robust black tea, made from the leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant, with milk for a creamy texture and mellow flavor. Black tea is rich in antioxidants like polyphenols, which support heart health and may reduce inflammation. Adding milk provides calcium and vitamin D, beneficial for bone health, though it slightly dilutes the tea's antioxidant properties. Typically served hot, it may be sweetened with sugar or honey, depending on preference, which can add empty calories. Variations, such as masala chai, include spices for additional health benefits. While black tea with milk is generally a comforting and nutritious choice, moderation is key, especially with added sugar or full-fat milk. Its caffeine content provides an energy boost, but excessive consumption can contribute to anxiety or disrupted sleep in sensitive individuals.
