It’s evening, after a long, stressful day. You finally have some time to unwind. Maybe reach out for a book, put on some quiet music, slip into a warm bath, meditate, or simply sit in quiet contemplation. And in that moment, a steaming cup of Kahwa tea or Khewa feels like the missing piece. It’s the little ritual that makes everything complete.

In Kashmir, we have always known that Kashmiri Kahwah or Qehwa is more than just tea. Yes, it is an honoured tradition, woven into our ceremonies, but it is also a favourite home remedy. Not just to beat seasonal flu, but also when you want a cup of calm at the end of a day that has asked too much of you. It is the perfect stress buster.

Shared around gatherings, Khewa has always brought people together. Yet it also offers something deeply personal. It is your own cup of well-being, which restores balance, sip by sip.

This ancient wisdom that creates wellness finds its way into every cup of Kahwa tea at Kehwah. Our instant pre-mixes bring modern convenience to an old ritual. It is the perfect fusion of the old and new.

The Evening Pause Your Body Needs

Every evening, your body needs to take a pause and reset for the next day. There are different ways you can help your body transition from the chaos of the day to the calm of the evenings with a cup Kahwa tea. But first, let’s consider the four elements that are part of every evening pause:

Eating a balanced meal early. Start with a balanced meal, ideally early. Protein, complex carbohydrates, healthy fats, and fibre help your body restore itself after a long day. Avoid sugar, caffeine, and alcohol in the evening. Instead, a warm cup of Kahwa tea can be the perfect, soothing replacement.

Slowing down. Evening is for gentle rhythms. Let your activities help you unwind. Be it listening to soothing music, reading a reflective book, or doing yoga. Limit screen time and, if possible, keep electronics out of the bedroom. Like your cup of Kahwa tea, everything you do should encourage relaxation.

Honouring routine. In an unpredictable world, there’s nothing that slows your body down or helps you sleep better than adhering to a daily routine. That’s why drinking Kahwa tea in the evenings in Kashmiri homes has always been a cherished family ritual.

Sleeping long and well. Together, all these practices set the stage for a deep, restorative sleep. But it’s important for you to build an environment around you that safeguards your sleep and helps you have a good, long rest.

Let’s see how the ingredients in each cup of Khewa create the unique Kashmiri Khawa benefits that help you beat the stress and also create a healthy sleep routine that endures.

Why Qehwa is Your Cup of Calm

The ingredients in a cup of Kahwa tea have evolved over time. Each of these has been blended in for a reason in the recipes that have been handed down in families across generations. Let’s see how each of these has a special role in your cup of calm.

Saffron’s glow: Saffron, Khewa’s golden jewel, has always been treasured for its calming properties. Its delicate aroma relaxes the senses, while its rich flavour makes every cup feel like a small celebration. In Kashmir, saffron isn’t just an ingredient, it’s a mood-lifter. That’s what makes it the perfect ingredient for a cup of calm that both relaxes you and helps you sleep deeply.

Green tea’s healing touch: Unlike with heavy brews, the Kashmiri Kahwa benefits lie in its lightness and fragrance. It’s easy on your stomach. Sipped after dinner, it helps refresh the palate and supports digestion, leaving you feeling nourished without heaviness. And it has significantly lower levels of caffeine than coffee or even black tea! So, it’s one bedtime drink that you know won’t keep you awake.

Almonds and spices’ nourishing touch: Each cup carries the richness of almonds and the gentle strength of spices like cardamom and cinnamon. These aren’t just flavours. They’re nourishing companions that bring warmth, comfort and relaxation without overstimulation. So, they give you just the pick-me-up you need in your Kahwa tea, without keeping you up all night.

Together, these elements in Kahwa tea brew more than a beverage. They create a warm evening embrace, not just for the winters, but one that restores your balance at the end of each day.

How to Pair Qehwa with Your Evening Routine

You can pair a blend of Kahwa tea into your routine in different ways, based on the flavour that you would like to bring into your evenings. Here are three that we can think of:

Kashmiri Kahwa: This is Kashmir’s best-known traditional blend, made with green tea leaves, spices, nuts, and sometimes saffron. It has all the lightness and other benefits typically associated with green tea. That’s what makes Khewa a great addition to your daily routine.

Kesar Kahwa: This variation of Kashmiri Kahwa tea does not use a green tea base. Saffron is infused more prominently here, giving it a golden hue, luxurious aroma, and mood-lifting character. It’s your tea for those days when you need an extra lift, but with all the same Kashmiri Kahwa benefits.

Noon Chai or pink tea: On cooler evenings, there’s nothing like the creamy comfort of Noon Chai. With its subtle saltiness and distinctive pink hue, it warms you from within while offering a unique Kashmiri twist that surprises and delights.

Kashmiri Kahwa remains the most beloved of our blends, not only for its authentic taste and wellness benefits, but also because the Kashmiri Kahwa price makes it an everyday luxury within reach. But with these Khewa blends, and more, you can always be sure there’s always a cup to match your routine and your mood!
