There’s something undeniably magical about the combination of snowy mountains and a hot cup of tea. The majestic peaks blanketed in white offer a stunning visual feast, while the aroma and steam rising from the teacup engage your senses on another level. The chill of the snowy mountains is met with the warmth of the tea, creating a comforting contrast that soothes both body and mind and paints a picture of tranquility and beauty. Nothing can beat the warmth of tea in these mountains, and proving the same, a group of travellers tried to make a hot cup of tea amidst the snow-capped mountainous terrain of Jammu and Kashmir.
A video of the group of travellers has gone viral on social media, and till now it has been played more than 76 million times. The clip unfolds to show a person using a glass to collect some ice from the frozen stream. Then, they take out a camp stove and put the ice into the pot to prepare the tea. Once the ice has melted, they add some tea leaves and sugar to the water and let it boil. Next, they rip open milk from a Tetra pack, pour it into the pot, and let it boil. The clip concluded by showing the three individuals sipping the piping hot tea and enjoying the warmth in the chilly weather of Jammu and Kashmir.
The user shared the video with the caption, “Making chai on a frozen stream.”

The video not only grabbed the attention of globetrotters, but the instant delivery Grocery Mart app Swiggy Instamart was also drawn in. They couldn’t help themselves from flocking to the comment section to ask, “Parle-g bhi lekar aajaye? (Should we bring Parle-G also)?”
Expressing the desire to try the same in the snowy mountains, a user wrote, “Badly wanted to recreate it.”
“One day with my homies,” expressed another.
Tagging his friends in the comment section, another added, “Let’s try this type of adventure.”
Adding a tweak of humour, an individual added, “Bro made ice tea.”
The video not only gave adventurers travel goals but also sparked some hygiene concerns, with one commenting, “I hope someone did not piss in that snow.”
“Bacteria laughing in the corner,” wrote an individual.
Another comment read, “Nah, wait! Snow is full of impurities, and the water made from melting is not drinkable.”
