@Cranesbill DO YOU HAVE Chaí tea? I am dying for one
 
View attachment 570345@Cranesbill DO YOU HAVE Chaí tea? I am dying for one
Fun fact

The words cha/chai and tea all come from Chinene

茶, said "cha"

Those who got tea from China by land call it a variation of cha (e.g. Indian/hindi chai)

Those who got tea from China by sea (i.e. from the British) call it "tea"

Why? Because the British saw the character 茶, saw it had a little "t" at the bottom - and decided that's what it's called



So in other words, you asked for "tea tea"

Reactions: impeeza
