This video explores the deep-rooted tradition of tea drinking in the Rohingya community, where Cha (black tea) serves as a daily source of comfort and connection. Often enjoyed with a squeeze of lemon, tea plays a vital role in home life, offering warmth and refreshment. She also shares insights into the community’s preference for instant drinks such as Happy and Copi, which require only hot water for preparation, reflecting the choice of beverages of the Rohingya community.
