Introduction

Something is wrong if two people don’t get into a catfight over a cup of tea or a tumbler of coffee. The debate can never end. A good fraction of people can’t start their day without tea or get through the afternoons without a cup of tea, and it’s understood as courtesy to offer tea to your guests, especially in Indian households. 

But what is tea? Is it just limited to getting tea leaves from your local store and heating them with water or milk? Absolutely not. It’s impossible to keep drinking the plain single flavour tea, so there are multiple flavours available for people to try in their daily tumbler of tea. Tea loaded with medicinal benefits and a refreshing taste is all you need to start your day with! Check out the list of tea types that you should try at least once in your life. 

Anytime is Teatime – 10 Types of Tea That You Should Try

1. Ginger Honey Tea

A cup of ginger-honey tea every morning or when you are sick can bring you lots of immunity and energy. As both the components are rich in anti-oxidant properties, this particular drink works like a medicine and immunity booster. It is helpful if you are struggling with motion sickness, flu, arthritis or a crazy upset stomach. Ginger Honey Tea is a one-stop solution for everything. Grate some ginger and toss into the tea concoction while it is on low heat in a pan. Pour your ginger tea in an insulated tumbler, and then add some natural honey instead of artificial sugar. You can also make a good huge quantity and carry it in a stainless steel flask for the days when you have a runny nose. 

2. Peppermint Tea

Peppermint tea is probably a genuine gift from nature to the whole world. If you are struggling to get some sound sleep at night or your days are full of stress.

Boil it until you can smell a pleasing aroma, then pour your peppermint tea in a tumbler with some honey.
