In Muslim countries, tea is more than just a hot drink. It is very important to the heritage, traditions and cultures in which it originates.

For #InternationalTeaDay we celebrate the art of tea, with 24 different types of tea from across the Muslim world…

1/ Moroccan Mint Tea

Made by steeping green tea with a generous handful of spearmint leaves, it is sometimes also made with other types of mint or herbs, and traditionally served in small glass cups #InternationalTeaDay2023 Image
2/ Persian Chai

Black tea, called chai in Farsi, is one of the most popular drinks in Iran. It is so popular that it is more than just a drink – it is part of Persian culture. Black tea leaves are boiled with cardamom pods for the perfect Persian chai #InternationalTeaDay2023 Image

Happy International Tea Day! Tea was cultivated in China as early as around 4000 BC or 1500 years before the Great Pyramids of Egypt were built.
But before tea evolved to become the beverage it is today, it was initially eaten as a vegetable or cooked with grain porridge. Tea shifted from being food to a drink around 1500 years ago.
Later through history tea would evolve into different types and flavours like Masala tea, Lemon tea, Apple tea and even Chocolate tea. When fermented, tea became the refreshing and bubbly antioxidants rich Kombucha.

Violence in the queen of hills! On this #InternationalTeaDay we look back at how the last British tea planter of Darjeeling met with an untimely death. A thread. 1/15
The queen of hills is known for its stunning views of the Kangchenjunga, the historic Himalayan Railway, and of course its most famous export, tea. But Darjeeling also has its fair share of mysterious and violent tales. 2/15
On a fateful summer night in 1981, the sleepy hills suddenly woke up to a ruckus. Following a fierce argument between a plantation owner and his workers in the Garden of Rungmook and Cedars, the owner was found dead the next morning. 3/15

1/ Somali Shaah

A spiced black chai made throughout Somalia. It is found across the Somali diaspora & is a cousin of Yemeni, Kenyan & Indian chais. It differs from other chais in that it often omits black pepper, & the milk is added after the cooking process #InternationalTeaDay

తేనీరు (ఆంగ్లం Tea) ఒక పానీయం. తేయాకును నీటిలో మరిగించి వచ్చిన ద్రావకాన్ని తేనీరు(టీ) అంటారు. మానవ దేహానికి ఉత్తేజాన్ని కల్గించే ఆహార పదార్ధాలలో టీ ప్రథమ స్థానంలో ఉంటుంది. దీనిలో పంచదార, పాలు కలుపుకొని త్రాగుతారు.

4వ శతాబ్దంలో ఒక చైనా వైద్యుడు ఆకులను త్రుంచి,ఎండబెట్టి,ఒక ప్రత్యేక ఉష్ణోగ్రతకు వేడిచేసి,వేడి నీటిలో నానబెట్టగా వచ్చిన చేదు డికాక్షను వైద్య పరీక్షకు త్రాగాడు.ఈ టీ డికాక్షను త్రాగినందువల్ల ఇతడు ఉత్తేజాన్ని పొందాడు.టీ సేవన ద్వారా మొట్టమొదటగా ఉత్సాహాన్నీ,ఆనందాన్నీ పొందిన వ్యక్తి ఇతనే
15వ శతాబ్దంలో నాగరిక ప్రపంచంలో టీ త్రాగడం ప్రారంభమయ్యింది. 17వ శతాబ్దంలో ఈస్ట్ ఇండియా కంపెనీ వినిమయ పద్ధతిలో బట్టలు, వెండికి మరియు అనధికారికంగా నల్లమందుకు బదులుగా టీని చైనా నుండి దిగుమతి చేసుకునేది.
