Tea Powder for Exhilarating Taste

If you are a tea aficionado, you will be familiar with Matcha tea. But are you aware of how a mix of the rich Indian spices with the best tea powder in India can create calming and soulful flavors? Let us quickly go through some magical recipes with their benefits and uses. Let us first understand how to powder tea leaves. The dust CTC tea are ideal, and you can further crush them to a fine consistency with stone and mortar or use a grinder. The tea leaf will not need any long steeping or brewing so you must be careful to powder grind well.

The herbal extract

The concept from Japan where tea powder is a part of the regular herbal tea consumed by them. The secrets of health benefits in tea were known to them much before it came to India. However, our herbal infusions are unique and widely loved by them too. The tradition of herbal tea in not unknown. The subtle medley of spices with tea at different times of the day or a warm cup during an after-meal tête-à-tête is an integral part of our culture. You can conjure a tea feast with grounded tea leaves, petals of Asian pigeonwings, cinnamon, clove and cardamom. If you want to sweeten the beverage, drizzle some honey and your stimulant will not just be a healthy tonic but a refresher that banishes the fatigue away completely. Drinking this anytime of the day will add a spring to your steps. 

The process of commercial powdering

The freshness and strength of the tea leaves add the real wonder to the magic portion. Well known tea makers write that though dust tea is made out of fannings (smaller grade CTC teas) but they are more expensive than the whole leaf of cheaper teas. They brew a strong liquor which is a fruity flavorful delicacy that pleases with or without milk. 

The tea leaves are selected with a great deal of finesse and care. Handpicked by skilled tea pluckers, the tea leaves are processed and dried. The liquid is extracted from the leaves to make a concentrated brew of the leaves and the dust. The liquid goes through a spray/ freeze drying process which separates the powder from the liquid. There is another way that powdered tea is made. The harvested leaves are crushed for juice extraction. The extracted juice is fermented in the right conditions. A centrifuged steaming process follows. The juice is frozen dry, and the powder remains. The leftover leaves are fermented and dried and then processed in the same way for a courser texture.  The homemade one not just smells sweet with the labor of love but is undeniably an authentic extract from the best tea powder in India. It is chai par excellence.
