I read a discussion here enjoying with tea in morning time I replied I enjoy my morning with bathing hehe...because not take tea without bathing. I know most of the persons like bed tea but some persons specially women not like taking tea without bathing. I heard many time from elders after marriage dont go in kitchen without bathing so no chance of tea. But when I goes in mother's house she make tea for me after bathing and I drink before bathing. Is this good way no tea only because of no bathing. Do you have any experience about it.

Hello, I have not this habit. My bed tea is alarm to wake-up. It is tradition in India specially is marwari, Brahman and some other hindu families. But Punjabi people have not this tradition. I think this is ban only for women not for men. So if you want to tea before bath request to your hubby to make tea. In my family my wife is allowed to go in kitchen without bath. So I have not this problem.

Surekha time is changed. In these days women are also busy one. They are also doing job and making making for family. So what is wrong in it if husband help wife in home works. Is se koi chote bap ka nahi ho jata. It increase love and understanding between husband and wife.

I don't have a special time of drinking tea, but I usually drink tea while working in the office. It is my tea-drinking habit. Back home, I don't usually drink tea, especially in the evening. If I drink tea in the evening, it will keep me awake. Thanks for the discussion.

I used to have my tea before taking a bath. I enjoyed drinking tea early morning.Its a practice for me to make myself warm before going to bathe. I guess Its nice to have something before indulge in a warm bath. I don't have idea about your culture but I think you are right to drink tea before or even after bathe. Happy mylotting!

Surekha grow up. Have your own opinions. What elders suggested you was their tradition and nothing to do with your health. First of all, having tea regularly is just a habit and tea is not good for your health. Sometimes it may help you get rid of headache. But tea can increase toxicity due to the chemical constituent of tea called aluminium. Tea is full of tannins which disturb your digestive system. Green tea has some advantages like it helps you combat cancer but balck tea or tea mixed with milk, the one most prevalent in India is just not good for health. People who consume tea can hardly leave that habit. So I advise you Surekha don't have tea more than once a day. If you bath before entering kitchen, you will get get tired by the end of your chores in kitchen. So I prefer completing lunch first, then have my bath

Oh no! I drink tea a lot during the day whilst i am working - I probably have about 5 cups a day and then more when I get home. I do drink a lot of tea and also I someimes have coffee instead. I should probably drink less tea and coffee to be honest! Haha

I am a very big tea drinker and could drink tea all day. I have been known to take a cuppa of tea into the bathroom when I go ofr a bath. Sometimes I take a cup of tea to bed with me and drink it while I'm reading my book in bed

Wow, no I don't do this but I think it's pretty cool to have such a routine in the morning-it might make me more likely to wake up earlier lol I have to say though I don't think it matters if you have your tea before you bathe, other than if it is something you are used to doing. I love to have tea at night and find it very relaxing. When I wake up in the morning I don't want to really relax so I don't think tea would help me out much. Even tea with caffeine is relaxing to me, I find it a different kind of energy than coffee or soda.

I never take bed tea.I had read somewhere that it is harmful for our digestive system.So when I get up in the morning I first take three glasses of warm water,then brush my teeth carefully and then have a cup of tea before taking my bath.Then I switch on my pc,respond to a few discussions and then go out to the market to buy necessary things for my household.Often my wife does all the shopping.After returning from the market,I take my bath and then take a cup of tea again.I don't take breakfast.

I have almost the same habit here. I take my shower at 8 pm at night. Dry off and have a cup of coffee. I do this every single night. i know I should have tea rather than coffee especailly at night time. I might take your idea and start that tonight. Have a great day there. Tea to you.

I like to drink tea while I'm bathing or I also like to make this spiced milk beverage that I use to take my medicine with. My ayurvedic doctor recommended me to take my medicine with milk that has been warmed up and spiced with turmeric, saffron, cardamom, and also has Indian dried dates in it as well. Tea is another good way for me to take my medicine as well and either form of hot beverage is also a great way to help me relax even more while I am taking a bath.
