When you visit India—whether you’re in a busy city or a peaceful village—there’s one thing you’ll hear often:
“Chai?”
It’s not really a question. It’s an invitation.
In India, chai is everywhere: at home, at work, on the street.
It’s more than just tea. It’s a small moment of rest, of comfort, and of connection. It brings people together, one cup at a time.
In Europe, drinks like coffee or tea are often quick and practical.
In India, chai is a slow ritual. It starts the day, fills the afternoon break, and welcomes every guest.
Each family has its own style—some make it strong and spicy, others light and sweet. But one thing stays the same: chai is always shared.
At DVcollections, we love this part of Indian life. It shows how even something simple can feel so special.
Chai has been around for a long time.
In ancient India, people made a herbal drink called kadha, full of healing spices. Later, during British rule, tea plantations were set up across India.
Locals took the British tea and made it their own—by adding milk, sugar, and traditional spices. That’s how masala chai was born.
The beauty of chai is that it’s not just tasty—it’s good for you too. Every ingredient brings its own natural benefit:
Together, these ingredients make a warm, comforting drink that supports your health.

In many parts of India, chai is served in kulhads—small cups made of natural clay. They’re:
They hold warmth in your hands. They bring out a gentle, earthy flavor. And when you’re done? They ‘return to the earth’.
It’s a beautiful example of how tradition and sustainability can go hand in hand.
