The Chai Culture in India
In India, tea is much more than a drink to begin your day with.
It has become an integral part of the culture and life of every Indian. In
fact, if you take a walk around any local Indian road, you will definitely find
chaiwallahs (tea sellers) steaming up a hot Masala Chai for their customers.
Indians consume about 837,000 tonnes of tea every year, making it the country’s
most popular and beloved beverage.
A
Perfect Companion
Tea is considered as the ideal companion for many occasions in
India. It’s the perfect way to enjoy a rainy day, the comforting cup on a
winter morning and even a soothing drink on a hot summer afternoon. Tea is
known to stimulate the senses and refresh the mind and body; therefore, it is
consumed before big meetings, on a bad day, and to make your good day even
better.
A
Social Event
In a country where guests are considered a manifestation of God,
tea is the perfect way to greet guests at home along with some hot snacks. In
fact, you can’t refuse a cup of tea in the country or your host might get
offended. Drinking tea has become an elaborate culture in India, where many now
host tea-parties, celebrating special occasions. Chai has become a sign of
hospitality and it builds connections like no other form of food or drink.
A
Conversation Starter
Whether you’re on a first date, meeting your friends after a
long day or with your office colleagues for a tea break, Chai seems to break
the ice and helps people to communicate with each other on a much better level.
In fact, tea-time is associated with an idea of stopping every activity to take
a moment to sip Chai and have a small chat.
