The good part is that we’ve experimented with tea like we have with rest of our now you can find many types of teas in all over the world. There is Green Tea, the Black Tea, pink tea, Masala Tea etc. There is one more thing that is different from most of the countries. We add milk to our tea. Only green tea is taken without milk.

They are found in abundance in Himalayan regions (China, Pakistan, Nepal, India, Bhutan) and are mentioned here .Following is the recipe of pink tea.
