Afternoon
As the day progresses and you feel a dip in energy, to re-charge, you can choose from options like Masala Chai, Kashmiri Kahwa or Earl Grey. All of these being Indian blends, they seamlessly mingle with our daily routine and help us go through the day. Check out these three variants on the TGL Co. website to know more about their specific taste notes and preparation guides.
Masala Chai is the classic Indian refreshment popularized by roadside tea shops. This all-time must-have is infused with a mix of Indian spices like cloves, ginger, black pepper, cinnamon, and cardamom. This “masala” is what gives this tea its edge, filling it with a remarkable flavour and aroma. Masala Chai is the perfect choice for those sluggish afternoons when you're trying to be your productive best.
Kahwa tea is typically green tea made with rose petals, saffron, and other spices. The fragrant and rich Kashmiri Kahwa tea is frequently served with crushed almonds or walnuts and honey and can be a delicious starter for your special afternoons. In addition, the Kashmiri Kahwa tea is a traditional herbal tea that has been used for centuries to improve digestion, making it the perfect post-lunch tea.
Earl Grey tea is the go-to choice for those busy, on-the-go afternoons. This black tea is widely consumed in England and is one of the most popular in the world. Its black tea base is infused with the oil of the bergamot orange rinds. That is what sets this tea apart. The oil adds a citrus and floral note to the tea. Sip it on as it is or create a London Fog which is an Earl Grey tea latte to make the perfect afternoon beverage!
Evening
The tricky part about evening teas is that you don't want that boost of caffeine but you do want a comforting beverage to mark the end of your workday! Here, green and red teas come to the rescue. With rich amounts of antioxidants, green tea and red tea are the healthiest of options. TGL Co. has a wide selection of these power-packed teas. Let's look at a couple of interesting options to choose from.
Rooibos tea is made from the leaves of the Rooibos plant. This South Africa-originated beverage has a sweet, nutty flavour and with longer brewing, produces a warm woody smell. Rooibos tea is also known as red tea or red bush tea. It is a herbal tea which is naturally free of caffeine.
Mint tea is a refreshing beverage that is made by infusing peppermint leaves in water, it is an excellent choice for both hot and cold brewing. When brewed hot, mint tea is a comforting and soothing drink that can help ease digestive issues and relieve stress. The natural oils in peppermint leaves have a calming effect on the stomach, making it a great choice of tea to follow heavy meals. When brewed cold, mint tea is a refreshing and revitalizing drink that is perfect for hot summer days. It is very easy to prepare and is packed with nutrients.
