®Kashmiri kahwa
A clear, aromatic cup commonly made with green tea and warming spices. Saffron, almond and rose depend on the recipe. Kehwah’s Kashmiri blend combines green tea, saffron, cardamom, cinnamon and almond, without rose.
A guide to your cup
Kashmiri, desi or instant kahwa?
Start with the ingredients. Then choose how you like to make it.
Desi kahwa
A broad name used for spiced brews, rather than one fixed ingredient list. Check the particular blend for tea leaf, sweeteners and preparation. The name alone does not tell you whether a cup contains caffeine or saffron.
Instant kahwa
A preparation format: a ready-to-stir mix instead of a tea bag or loose ingredients. Kehwah No Sugar contains green tea, saffron, cardamom, cinnamon and almond. Empty a sachet into hot water and stir for 20 seconds.

For saffron without tea leaf
Choose Kesar Kehwah. It is a saffron, almond and spice infusion. For saffron with green tea, choose Kashmiri or Rose Kehwah.
For a quick cup
Choose No Sugar Instant Kehwah. Its 25 single-serve sachets are useful for an office drawer or travel kettle. The currently available tin has no added sugar.
For a botanical evening cup
Try Sleep Aid, a caffeine-free infusion with chamomile, lavender, ashwagandha and tulsi. It is a different blend from our saffron kahwas.
