Tea Love

I have never talked about glass of tea like this before. I m a coffee person. I love the fresh aroma of coffee that wafts through the air, travel through my nose, spreads in my brain and then, it starts functioning properly! Like how engine oil works an engine! 

But then, while making this Tea, as the milk was boiling with the spices, all the above happened. It has become our new favorite and special for weekends.  We enjoyed this along with Yemeni doughnuts Bakhmri.

Some Exotic Tea Ideas

If you love fruit teas, then check this warm Orange Tea or this Herbal tea, a perfect beverage for this winter.

As a typical South-Indian, i have never heard the term iced tea or coffee. But living in UAE for almost 2 decades now, where most part of the year is summer we have included iced tea too along with our hot cup of chai or coffee.

So, if you are like us and love some cold tea check out these suggestions below.

  • Watermelon iced tea
  • Ginger & Lemon iced tea
