Kadha Chai for Stronger Immune

 

Kadha Chai is a black tea made with whole spices tulsi/ Indian basil leaves and crushed ginger. It is believed to be a home remedy for many ailments. This kadha can be given to someone suffering from sever cold 🥶 and/or cough 🤧 or if having stomach upset or digestion issues. It immediately relieves and makes calm. Helps in better sleep if given at bedtime. Having this tea early morning quickly replenish your mind and helps feeling fresh.

Why I decides to make this today is because, my maid turned up and was sneezing and coughing like hell🤒🤕 Gave her a bigger mug ☕we had our tonic and carried on with our chores,  feeling much better 😅

Having said that! it is too tasty!  So me and my family often drink Kadha chai in different variations during bedtime or early morning.
