Tea is much more than a beverage in India. This fondness for tea has led to it being the subject of various unique food experiments. One such creative endeavour features miniature cooking. An Instagram food page shared a video demonstrating the making of tea in a coconut shell. The clip opens with a woman pouring water into a coconut shell, which is placed atop a tiny clay stove. Using a spoon, she adds tea leaves and sugar to the boiling water. Once it acquires its orangish-brown colour, she adds milk. Before it all starts boiling, she adds crushed ginger and cardamom to the tea. The video shows her using small tongs to pick up the hot coconut shell and then pour the tea into a tiny tumbler.

Another pointed out that the amount of tea in the miniature cooking video is just perfect, commenting, “When someone says: Sirf ek ghuth chai banana” [Only make one sip of tea].
