Having a cup of tea. Well, I rather call it chai. Oh wait, that's not a cup, it's a glass. And it's a whiskey glass as well I mean I love chai and I don't know why I love to drink it from a glass than from a cup. Is it wierd to drink chai(tea) from a glass?

Many in India have chai that way. So common in roadside chaiwalla shop.

Yeah, I only used to have chai from a roadside chaiwalla everyday, some of them make the best chai. But during this current lockdown situation, I have to make it at home in my way.

@pujanmukherjee5 You can drink tea from any glass, just like someone can drink whiskey from any glass. No particular whiskey glass either, people just make their choice of glass.

From tea leaves and grated ginger and cardamom to add some spiceness and milk of course.

@pujanmukherjee5 do you buy it like that? Or do you mix the spices in yourself?

The more amusing part is drinking it from a Whiskey glass! Else it is in fact sometimes a good change to have tea in glass.
