Gur Chai

One of the popular Indian teas languidly served is ‘Gur Chai’, or in the case of, Jagery tea. The beverage is soothing and delightful. This traditional tea consists of Black tea and jaggery ( Gur ). The sweetmeat is prepared from concentrated sugarcane juice or sap taken from date palm tree.The making of the tea needs very few ingredients but at the end of it feels like a job well done. First put some water in a vessel in order to boil and add black tea leaves in it with some spices such ginger, cardamom, or cinnamon for heat and the infusion to this tea. After the tea is brewed, milk is poured in followed by gulab or pieces of jaggery. When the chunks dissolve into the tea, it provides mellower sweetness like caramel syrup found at the bottom of pudding.Also, gur chai can be a sweet treat, and gloomy moods have other advantages. It is an alternative soothing tummy with jagery which is also known to people due to its iron nutritional sources. To make a long story short, this comforting tea is excellent for warm, cold nights, or as an energizing drink to begin the day which is why many tea drinkers in India cling to it.
