We think not. Milk tea is a staple in many Sri Lankan households, and it is very common to stop at a kade (roadside shop) to enjoy a cup of sweetened milk tea as you travel around the island.Read on to find out what it takes to brew the perfect cup of milk tea and get a milk tea recipe so that you can brew this comforting beverage at home! What is Milk Tea?In its most basic form, milk tea is made of two ingredients: milk and tea. However, there are a few factors you must consider when making a cup of milk tea and these include the type of tea to use, choosing loose tea or tea bags, and the type of milk to use.Interestingly, countries all across the world have different variations of milk tea. Bubble milk tea (also known as Boba milk tea) from Taiwan; London Fog which is a British milk tea made from Earl Grey tea; and the famous Matcha latte from Japan. A Celebration of Sri Lankan TraditionsFrom the ancient dynasties of Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa to the colonial era of the Portuguese, Dutch and British, our beautiful island of Sri Lanka has a long and rich history. Dubbed as the home of pure Ceylon tea, each era of Sri Lanka’s past has shaped the country uniquely and irrevocably and has given rise to several religious, cultural and social traditions. One such famous tradition is the Esala Perahera. Also known as the Kandy Perahera or Dalada Perahera, this ten-day-long festival commemorates the first teaching given by the Buddha after he attained enlightenment. Held between July and August in the mist-laden city of Kandy. With drummers, dancers, musicians and elephants carrying precious objects like the sacred tooth relic, the perahera is a sensory experience.Another important tradition that has gradually been intertwined with the country’s culture, is the tradition of growing and making tea. In 1824, Scotsman James Taylor planted the first 19 acres of tea in Loolecondera Estate near Kandy, Ceylon. Since then, tea has become a thriving industry and is a part of everyday Sri Lankan life. Zesta’s Perahera Elephant is the perfect amalgamation of these two beloved Sri Lankan traditions. This novelty tea gift contains Zesta premium black tea presented in a rich wooden box and a porcelain tusker donning its traditional perahera costume. Much like the perahera, the tradition of growing, preparing and enjoying tea, whether it be English Breakfast tea, Earl Grey black tea or even green tea, is a sensory experience. Ignite the senses as you celebrate Sri Lankan traditions with Zesta Ceylon Tea. The 5 Most Famous Teas in the WorldFrom frothy, spicy chai to rejuvenating and relaxing green tea, tea is loved all across the world in its various forms. While there are a seemingly endless amount of tea types, there are only five main brews of tea – black tea, white tea, green tea, oolong tea, and pu’erh. Despite their many names and unique flavours, all tea is made from the leaves of the Camellia Sinensis tea bush. What sets each brew apart from one another is the length of time the tea leaves are oxidised for.Tea is truly remarkable. It began as a medicinal herbal beverage exclusively consumed by Chinese royalty, but has transformed into a thriving industry and tea is now the second most popular beverage in the world – second only to water!Whether you’re a tea connoisseur or you just enjoy a cuppa with your breakfast, tea has the extraordinary ability to make everything seem a bit better. Here are four of the world’s most beloved teas.Black TeaPerhaps the most famous, and most popular, tea in the world, black tea is a staple in many households. There are several types of black tea in the market, but Ceylon tea is widely considered to be one of the finest brews. Grown in Sri Lanka, there are two types of pure Ceylon black tea; high-grown tea which produces a honey-hued brew with a delicate flavour, and low-grown tea which is reddish-brown and has a strong flavour. Black tea leaves are oxidised for the longest, and this results in its deep colour and full-bodied flavour.White Tea“White as cloud, pure as snow, aromatic as orchid”, this is how ancient Chinese poets beautifully described the revered white tea. Unlike other brews, white tea is processed entirely by hand and its leaves are left unoxidised, which results in a very delicate brew with a pale yellow hue to it. This tea is made from the unfurled leaves of the tea bush, and these buds are covered in fine silver-white hairs, which is why this tea is also known as Silver Tips tea.There is also a rare white tea called Golden Tips tea, which is even more special as it is exclusively grown in Sri Lanka at an elevation of 6,000ft and close to Adam’s Peak.Green Tea Nowadays, green tea is synonymous with health. From increasing metabolism to helping prevent diabetes, green tea is celebrated for its numerous health benefits. Similar to white tea, the tea leaves remain unoxidised, which allows the leaves to retain more nutrients as well as their green colour. Once plucked, the green tea leaves are then steamed or pan-fried to stop the oxidation process and to release its unique sweet earthy flavour. After that, the leaves are cooled, rolled, dried, and rolled once more before they’re graded and packaged. Green tea can also be used as a base to other flavoured teas.Flavoured TeaFlavoured tea is when teas like black or green tea are infused with other aromatics like herbs, spices, fruits or flowers. In fact, there are some flavoured teas which are so popular that they’re often mistaken for being their own type of tea, and Earl Grey tea would be the perfect example. Earl Grey tea has a black tea base and is infused with the extract of bergamot, a citrus fruit, giving this tea a uniquely refreshing flavour.Another popular flavoured tea is osmanthus tea. Here, black tea is infused with the fragrant osmanthus flower that is native to Asia. Not only is the blend flavourful but it is also loaded with health benefits. You can also find green tea based flavours, and a favourite is Zesta’s Jasmine Green Tea.What makes tea so remarkable is that while there are only five ‘proper’ teas, there are seemingly endless ways of enjoying tea. From popular Bubble Tea originating in Taiwan to a regular cup of English Breakfast tea in the morning, tea is extremely versatile and delicious.Have you tried any of these teas?
