Tea is the most consumed beverage in the world, after water

Every year on May 21, International Tea Day is celebrated to recognise the cultural, economic, and social significance of tea across the world.

For Indians, tea is more than just a beverage—it's a daily ritual and a symbol of hospitality.

Recognizing the long history and the cultural and economic significance of tea around the world, as well as the significant role it plays in rural development, poverty reduction and food security in developing countries. Tea is more than a commodity, it’s a culture, a way of life. A universal symbol of comfort and good health. Much more than a beverage, tea generates employment and income worldwide, enriching the livelihoods of millions of people, empowering whole communities to thrive over generations, and providing stability in an ever-changing world. This ancient beverage does more than hydrate—it's packed with antioxidants and compounds that boost your health, focus, and longevity. A steaming cup of tea holds more than flavor—it's a source of hydration, focus, and antioxidants that support heart health, digestion, and stress relief. Tea is more than just a drink; it's a cultural phenomenon, a source of comfort, and a potential health booster. It's a beverage deeply ingrained in many cultures, offering a range of benefits from relaxation to potential health improvements.

Here's why tea is more than just a drink:

Cultural Significance: Tea plays a significant role in many cultures, often serving as a symbol of hospitality and a social ritual. In India, for example, offering tea to guests is a common custom.

Relaxation and Mental Clarity: Tea can promote a sense of calm and focus, thanks to the amino acid L-theanine, which has relaxing effects.

Potential Health Benefits: Tea is a rich source of antioxidants and other compounds that may offer various health benefits, including heart health, digestive support, and potentially even lower risks of certain diseases.
