When somebody says “tea”, what do you think?
A hot cup to brighten up even the gloomiest day? Or vast tea plantations where it all begins? Before it ever reaches you, tea is created from carefully tended, treated leaves and after undergoing a long process. But did you know that both green and black teas come from the same plant and the only difference between them is how they are processed? To make black tea, the leaves have to be fermented and dried. While steaming and subsequent drying produces green tea.
Besides green and black tea, you can also enjoy fruit tea from mainly hibiscus and rosehip combined with orange peel and dried apple. Only after is the unmistakable flavor produced from adding dried fruit.
How do people around the world drink tea?
While honey and lemon are commonly used here to flavor tea, other countries and cultures have their own tricks to spice it up. Taste at home something foreign or even exotic. Maybe you’ll find a new favorite among them!
You might know the custom in England of pouring milk in black tea. But have you ever tasted this combination yourself? Just follow the instructions for the tea and then add milk or cream to it. It will make an impression!
It was in India where masala chai saw the light of day. This is a tea with a diverse variety of spices such as cardamom, ginger, star anise, cloves, cinnamon and nutmeg.
In India, drinking black tea with milk and cocoa is also popular. To this mixture is added cinnamon and cardamom. The tea should be sipped while still hot or else it quickly becomes bitter. It is a truly unusual experience.
For anyone looking to experiment, try pu-erh tea with a little butter, salt and soda. Tibetans and others living in the region derive energy and essential minerals from it. However, this flavor combination is a bit unusual here and not for everyone.
