കാശ്മീരി ചായ (Pink Tea , Gulabi Tea, Noon Chai, Shir Chai , kahwa Tea) Traditional Tea.

Noon chai, also called shir chai, gulabi chai, Kashmiri tea or pink tea, is a traditional tea beverage, originating from the Kashmir Valley, made with gunpowder tea (green tea leaves rolled into small balls), milk and baking soda.

The word noon means 'salt' in several languages such as Kashmiri, Bengali, Rajasthani, Hindi and Nepali. It is used in several other terms, such as the noon-dab ("salt promise") custom of Rajasthan, where a hand is dipped in salt to signify a solemn promise.

Noon chai is usually served at breakfast time in Kashmir Valley. People prefer to take tea instead of taking any fruit or vegetable for breakfast. Kashmiri bread is served along with the tea and with butter also.
