Oh Sweet Chai of Mine - a podcast by IVM Podcasts

Sit back and relax, pour some chai with and enjoy the company of the Gourmands and Geeks ; the 2Gs: Sadaf and Archit while they add some sweetness to make you wiser about India’s favourite beverage. If you thought Indians always drank chai, think again. If no, then what did we drink before chai? How did the marketing brilliance of the British Government turn us into a nation obsessed with chai? Why do we have tea breaks at work? They cover this and alot more in our first episode.
