About Indian chai

Indian Chai, or masala chai, is a spiced tea hailing from India, cherished for its warming flavors and cultural significance. Traditionally, it combines black tea leaves, milk, water, and a blend of aromatic spices such as cardamom, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and black pepper. Sweeteners like sugar or honey are often added for taste. Packed with antioxidants from black tea and anti-inflammatory compounds from the spices, chai can promote digestion and strengthen immunity. However, its health benefits may depend on preparation; excessive sugar or high-fat milk can add calories. Widely enjoyed as a comforting beverage, Indian Chai is a flavorful balance of rich tradition and potential wellness.
