Is Ghee Tea The New Ghee Coffee? A Nutritionist Weighs In On The Latest Trend

Ghee has come a long way from being dismissed as calorie-rich clarified butter that health-conscious individuals avoided. Thanks to an expanding network of niche information, ghee has undergone a complete transformation in its nutritional reputation. Today, it’s recognized as both an internal and external miracle worker when consumed in moderation. Bulletproof coffee — black coffee with a spoonful of ghee — has made several comebacks in wellness circles, celebrated for its potential health benefits. But now, ghee tea is taking center stage.

First things first: how do you make it? There are several ways to prepare ghee tea. Nutritionist Dr. Shilpa Arora recommends brewing black tea and adding a teaspoon of desi ghee. Other versions suggest adding ajwain and sugar to enhance flavor, while some even mix ghee into traditional doodh wali chai.

But what’s the point of switching to ghee tea, especially when that morning cup of chai feels too precious to alter? According to Nutritionist and Ayurvedic doctor, Dr. Anjana Kalia, the benefits may be worth it. “Ghee is a very good source of fat-soluble vitamins like A, D, and E, along with being a great source of Omega 3 fatty acids. Having ghee in tea will over time help in enhancing metabolism as well as our skin’s radiance. Not just this, it also acts as a lubricant and can work wonders for our joints,” she explains. Dr. Kalia also points out that ghee tea has the potential to improve the body’s absorption process and serve as an immunity booster. Her personal recommendation is black tea brewed with cinnamon, consumed alongside ghee.

So, how does ghee tea compare to its coffee counterpart? Dr. Kalia notes that both are rich in antioxidants, but there are important differences. “Coffee being high in caffeine can lead to anxiety or jitters in some people, especially those with hypertension or migraine issues. In such cases, ghee tea makes for a better option,” she elaborates.

Switching to ghee tea might just be the upgrade your morning routine needs.
