🌟 The Flavor Profile: "Elegance & Honey"
Kesar Chai is known for its delicate, sophisticated, and royal character.
The Appearance: A stunning golden-orange hue that looks like a sunset in a cup.
The Scent: A distinct, sweet, and floral aroma with hints of dried hay and honey.
The Taste: It has a smooth, creamy mouthfeel. The flavor is "earthy-sweet"—it’s not sharp like ginger or spicy like masala; instead, it is mellow, rich, and deeply comforting.
✨ The "Beauty" Tea: Key Benefits
Kesar is prized in Ayurveda not just for taste, but for its incredible healing and cosmetic properties:
Radiant Skin: Known as a "Varnya" herb, regular consumption of Kesar Chai helps purify the blood and provides a natural glow to the skin from within.
Natural Mood Lifter: Often called the "Sunshine Spice," saffron helps increase serotonin levels, making it a great natural remedy for stress, anxiety, and mild blues.
Heart & Circulation: Saffron is rich in antioxidants like crocin, which help improve blood circulation and support heart health.
Better Sleep: A warm cup of Kesar Chai in the evening relaxes the nervous system, helping you fall into a deeper, more restful sleep.
🌿 Ingredients
Base: Premium Long-leaf Black Tea or Assam CTC for a strong body.
The Hero: Pure Saffron Strands (Kashmiri or Iranian).
