The Story Behind the Dish
Elaichi (cardamom) chai is the everyday chai of millions of Indian homes — simpler than masala chai, but just as fragrant.
Served in disposable clay cups called kulhads at railway stations, it's one of the most evocative tastes of travelling in India.
⭐ Why It's Famous
One spice, a few minutes and a world of comfort — elaichi chai is India's everyday pick-me-up.
💡 Fun Fact
Clay kulhads add a faint earthy aroma to the tea — and because they're unglazed, they're traditionally used once and returned to the earth.
