Indians, the world’s largest consumers of tea, are developing a taste for a new brand of drink — Chinese green tea, attracted by its medicinal properties.
Chinese tea, which is taken without sugar or milk, is now on top of the menu at plush restaurants where health-conscious Indians riding an economic boom dine.
“When we introduced Chinese green tea in our menu earlier this year, we did not know how popular it would become,” said Bipul Roy, food and beverages manager at the Kenilworth Hotel in Kolkata, the hub of India’s tea trade.
Regular consumption of green tea could help to protect brain cells from conditions such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease, says a study in Japan published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.
