A video of an unusual ‘chai’ made at an Amritsar stall has gone viral on Instagram. In the reel shared by @thegreatindianfoodie, we see the vendor add milk to a large vessel. He crushes some green elaichi (cardamom) on the floor beside his seat and adds it to the milk. He also sprinkles some flower petals on it. He cooks these ingredients together and also preps a handful of almonds by getting them crushed with a mortar and pestle. In another vessel, he heats butter and mixes it with the almonds. Next, he strains the milk from earlier into this vessel and combines all the elements thoroughly. Finally, he pours it into a glass to serve.

The reel has clocked 868K views so far. In the comments, many people were left wondering why a drink called “chai” had to be made this way. Some users sarcastically suggested adding other bizarre ingredients to the beverage, including cheese, mayonnaise, ginger garlic paste, etc. Several users felt that it should be named badam (almond) milkshake instead. Read some of the reactions from Instagram below:
“Uncle, I forgot to add mutton masala and curd.” [“Uncle forgot to add mutton masala and curds.”]
“Tell uncle that he will sell tea and almond shake separately and he will get more customers.” [“Tell Uncle to sell chai and badam/ almond shake separately – more customers will come.”]
“Hey uncle, please put some tomatoes in it.” [“Uncle you should have added tomatoes and onions.”]
“If you add rice then it will become kheer.” [“If he would have put rice, it would have become kheer.”]
“100 rupee chai ft unhygienic conditions.”
“The ant almost became part of the ingredients.”
