Tea is a staple beverage throughout India; the finest varieties are grown in Darjeeling and Assam. It is generally prepared as masala chai, wherein the tea leaves are boiled in a mix of water, spices such as cardamom, cloves, cinnamon, and ginger, and large quantities of milk to create a thick, sweet, milky concoction. IndiaOrganix staff in Brighton like the taste of wild Himalayan honey in their chai. Different varieties and flavours of tea are prepared to suit different tastes all over the country.
Another popular beverage, coffee, is largely served in South India. One of the finest varieties of coffee arabica is grown around Mysore, and is marketed under the trade name Mysore Nuggets. Filter coffee, or kaapi, is especially popular in South India. Other beverages include nimbu pani (lemonade), lassi, badam dood (milk with nuts and cardamom), chaach (made from curd and yogurt ), sherbat and coconut water.
India also has many indigenous alcoholic beverages, including palm wine, fenni, bhang (a milky drink, thickened with almonds; infused with cannabis, popular at Holi celebrations) and Indian beer. However the practice of drinking a beverage with a meal, or wine and food matching, is not traditional or common in India.
Although the above drinks are popular in India, people prefer cold water with their food. In fact it is customary to offer drinking water to guest before serving hot or cold drink. Also drinking water does not overshadow taste of Indian food.
