A Cup Of Tea !

When we are lonely we have tea,
When we are tired we have tea,
When we are with friends we have tea,
When we are doing fun we have tea!!
There are innumerable facets of tea. Don't you think there is something quite fascinating about tea. I guess that's why we usually have it at least two times a day.
From the 'cutting chai' of Mumbai to the 'kadak chai' of Delhi, in every corner "whenever their is something missing Chai manages to fill the empty cup of our lives and moods." I wonder when this concept of tea drinking and tea culture has evolved and became as a tradition.

I just love ginger tea and Indian chai is my all time favourite. Although I was never a tea person infact a coffee freak but now, today I need my tea in a big 'coffee mug' to jump start my day.. No small cups for me!!
There is nothing better than the rich essence of an 'aroma tea', delicious as 'masala tea' and so refreshing and rejuvenating as 'cinnamon tea.'

As the tea brews, so do the secrets! with friends and family we do share our secrets, life and several talks to the simple pleasures just over a cup of tea. Tea lovers can go on and on, these moments are the best sweeteners of tea.

I live in a country where tea is popular all over as a breakfast and evening drink. People interact with tea and socialize over a cup of tea, we certainly do have a great history with tea, where offering it to visitors is like a culture in the society. Every Indian have tea in their 'Rashan list', here tea is a 'cup of life' and its simplicity appeals to me.

Its a saying and now I find it so true that 'all true tea lovers not only like their tea strong, but like it a little stronger with each year that passes..' don't you think??

In autumn and winter I find a nice cup of tea is the best companion. Whether we call it a stress-buster, a great anti-oxidant or a source of instant energy, tea has always been a favourite beverage.

So what better way to start your day, time to go and have some tea...the hotter the better!
