About this product
What Black Tea (Chai Patti) is
This is chai patti: black tea, the dried and oxidised leaf of the tea plant, Camellia sinensis. It is the leaf most Pakistani homes use for doodh patti and plain chai. It contains caffeine. Kali chai is the cup many people rely on for alertness and a lift in energy through the day. The leaf naturally carries polyphenols such as catechins, which are rich in antioxidants that have been studied for their protective effects. A regular cup may support heart health, metabolism and a healthy gut. Early research also links a daily habit of black tea with a lower chance of high cholesterol, type 2 diabetes, kidney stones, Parkinson's disease, weak bones (osteoporosis) and tooth decay, though more studies are needed.
- How to use
- For one cup of plain chai, add about 1 teaspoon to freshly boiled water and steep for 3 to 5 minutes, then strain. For doodh patti, boil the leaf in water for a minute or two, add milk and sugar, bring back to the boil and strain. Most homes drink two or three cups a day. Keep it moderate, as a lot of strong chai can leave some people restless or short of sleep.
- Choosing a pack
- Comes in 250 g, 500 g and 1 kg packs. 250 g is a good size to try; 1 kg suits a family that drinks chai every day.
- Safety notes
- Black tea contains caffeine, so go easy in the evening. Too much strong chai can bring on restlessness, poor sleep, headaches or a racing heart. Not a substitute for medical treatment; keep taking any medicine your doctor has prescribed. Ask your doctor first if you are pregnant, breastfeeding or have been told to limit caffeine.
