Popular food and travel guide TasteAtlas has unveiled a list of winners for its 2023-2024 year-end awards.
Indian cuisine has earned worldwide recognition, and Indian restaurants, ingredients and cookbooks have also earned international respect.
Included is a TasteAtlas ranking of the world’s best non-alcoholic beverages. The fact that Masala Chai from India came in second on this list made us proud.
What made Masala Chai top the rankings?
The culinary guide said, “Chai masala is an aromatic drink originating from India,” in the description of an Instagram post announcing the award. It is made with sweetened milk and black tea flavored with a masala mixture, usually consisting of ground ginger, cardamom, cloves, cinnamon, and black peppercorns.
Discussing its controversial roots, the guide emphasized its connection to the British tea trade. The publication clarified: “The British looked for other markets that could satisfy the high demand for black tea, a firm European favorite, because the Chinese had a monopoly on the tea trade in the 19th century.”
