Without question, the most popular drink in India (and many other countries as well) is chai. It is a very sweet tea that is mixed with milk and spices. Often, you will see men dipping bread into chai as a snack. The small glass that its served in is shorter than my middle finger and its width is narrower than the length of my pinkie finger (granted I have pretty long fingers!) But considering the huge amount of sugar in it, a small glass of it is all you need. In fact, if you do not drink it right away, a layer of sugary skin forms on top of it. If that`s the case, just scoop it out with a spoon. Though completely harmless, I don`t like to drink it cause it feels so weird in my mouth. Other than that, chai tastes so goooood.

My mom used to (and still does sometimes) dip buttered bread in her tea or coffee. Yum.
I'm happy to see food posts. Food = greatness.
My friend and I tried to eat our way through Japan. I'd say we did a pretty good job for the two weeks we were there.
