Global Tea Market is anticipated to cross USD 90 Billion by 2028
Tea is the world’s most consumed drink, after water. Tea is thought to have originated in northeast India, north Myanmar (Burma), and southwest China, but the specific location is unknown. Tea was consumed in China over 5000 years ago, according to evidence. Tea is the most popular produced drink in the world, outselling all others combined (including coffee, soft drinks, and alcohol). The majority of tea eaten outside of East Asia is grown on enormous plantations in the hilly regions of India and Sri Lanka for sale to large corporations. In contrast to this large-scale industrial manufacturing, there are several little ""gardens,"" often miniscule plantations that create highly sought-after teas treasured by gourmets. These teas are rare and expensive, comparable in price to some of the most expensive wines. Tea is more than just a drink in many places; it is an old custom that is distinctive to each culture. Tea comes in a variety of flavours that vary depending on the oxidation and fermentation techniques used. Tea planting provides employment and income to millions of smallholder growers in various countries, supplementing or even replacing production from larger tea estates. While three-quarters of tea produced is consumed domestically, tea is a commodity that is widely traded and exported. The global tea industry has grown rapidly in recent decades, with an increasing number of customers worldwide. Tea is a beverage made from the Camellia sinensis plant's leaves. It is available in a variety of flavours, aromas, and colours, including black, green, oolong, white, and herbal teas. It is high in antioxidants, which can help protect the body from free radical damage. It's a fragrant beverage created by pouring boiling or hot water over fresh or cured tea leaves. It also includes caffeine and other helpful components like theanine, which can boost mental alertness and reduce stress. It helps to improve heart health, lower the risk of certain cancers, and promote weight management.
