Gud Ki Chai-Jaggery Tea

Gud Ki Chai or Jaggery Tea is a hot beverage that is consumed with great excitement in Uttar Pradesh and is a Winter treat in true sense.

Quite often it carries the risk of getting curdled which is why tea-lovers (If you are a tea-lover, you may also like Masala Chai) often shy away from trying out this variant of tea. In this step-by-step recipe, we will go through in details in the process of making this tea and what precautions to take to prevent it from getting curdled.

Immensely important in Indian culture, jaggery or Gud not just for its medicinal properties but also for being considered auspicious over processed sugar. Owing to the fact that organic Jaggery does not undergo any kind of processing which Sugar has to go through, Jaggery is more acceptable on religious occasions and find its place in desserts that is served as a Prasad.
