International Tea Day 2024: Avoid these 5 food items with tea

Avoid eating pungent food items like garlic and onion with the tea, as it can interfere with the delectable taste and aroma of the tea. 

Don't pair citrus fruits with tea, as the high acidity of the fruits can interact with the tannins in the tea, resulting in a bitter taste. 

Experts believe that clashing tea with extremely spicy foods can reduce flavor. It can also cause digestive issues when combined with the tannins of the tea. 

Chocolate, especially dark chocolate, can overshadow the delicate notes of the tea and might not be a very great-tasting flavor. 

Avoid pairing alcohol with tea, as these flavors can clash and change the flavor profile of both beverages.
