A common beverage served at high temperature
文化背景
Tea is often served in small glasses rather than ceramic cups at roadside stalls. This allows the drinker to see the color and consistency of the tea. In this region, tea is often served very sweet and with a lot of ginger. It is common to pour it into a saucer (rakabi) to cool it. Parsis introduced 'Parsi Cho' which often includes lemongrass (leli cha) and mint, making it very aromatic. The 'Kitli' culture is a hub for intellectual and political debate. 'Cutting' tea is the standard order here.
The Saucer Trick
If the tea is too hot, it's perfectly acceptable to pour it into the saucer (rakabi) to cool it down.
Sugar Levels
Gujarati tea is notoriously sweet. If you don't like sugar, specify 'Khand vagar ni' (without sugar).

Ginger for Health
If you have a cold, ask for 'Adu vali garam cha' (Hot tea with ginger). It's the local cure-all.
Refusing Tea
It's hard to say no to tea in a Gujarati home. If you really don't want it, say 'Haji hamna j pidhi' (I just drank some).
