What are the closest but healthy replacements for regular tea? I know the sugar and dairy part is not healthy but we have got addicted to its morning routine and taste. Need help to get out of its habit.

Read moreI have not been taking milk/sugar(cheeni)/honey since 6th Dec 2018. I use gurh as substitute.
For me a simple herbal tea has worked wonders. Tulsi leaves, Cinnamon stick, adarak, and a luang. Boil it well in 1-1/2 cup of water. Strain it in a cup. If you are craving tea - then you can add just a bit of tea leaves in the strainer and strain through it (it will add the aroma and color of tea). Add some drops of lemon and a spoon of honey if you want
I was once offerred Mint tea at Ladakh in my home stay - which was very yummy too. Simply boiled water kept in a flask with pudina leaves! I loved its simplicity
Also if you cannot give up your chai in morning do not worry - just ensure you start your day with a fruit / soaked raisins. Have your tea about 30-45 minutes later. Eventually the shift will happen!
I started taking a brew of cardamom, cinnamon, clove, ginger and pepper with gud. I was a heavy tea drinker. Any excuse was enough to drink tea! I do not have the craving at all!
In winter i used to consume more tea. I tried to substitute with hot water but the craving never went. Strangely with this brew, i take only twice a day, sometimes thrice and haven't felt the desire to drink tea. And what's more, even if i need to drink socially, the craving hasn't returned. Hope this helps
A quick herbal tea has worked really well for me. Simply add herbs/spices of your choice - cinnamon/black pepper/elaichi/clove/oregano/tulsi/ginger etc. and boil in fresh water. Strain and enjoy. Could add jaggery/honey for sweetness.

When it comes to tea, I think it’s more about the mental block than anything else. As for options - simply sipping on a cup of hot water with some lemon in it is also an option!! Do it for a few days and u’ll be sorted.
Coconut milk masala chai with jaggery > regular lime ginger cinnamon and jaggery boiled in hot water > just lime and ginger and cinnamon in hot water . Trust me many have tried this and transition works provided you are high on fruits on a daily basis to detox ur gut
