Tamannaah Bhatia eases into her day with soaked nuts, ‘tea and time’: ‘These minutes are private…’

“Dry fruits such as almonds, walnuts, or pistachios are rich in healthy fats, protein and micronutrients, which provide sustained energy and satiety without causing a sudden surge in blood sugar. Including a small portion of these nutrient-dense foods early in the day can help reduce mid-morning hunger and support metabolic steadiness, especially for people with busy schedules,” said Goyal.

Should you pair dried fruit with tea? 

Pairing dry fruits with tea adds another dimension to the morning ritual. “Tea, particularly when consumed without excessive sugar, offers antioxidants that support immunity and gentle stimulation without the intensity of strong coffee. For many individuals, this combination of light nourishment and antioxidant hydration can set a calm, balanced tone for the day ahead,” said Goyal.

What to note?

However, it’s essential to be mindful of portion size and overall dietary balance. “Dry fruits are calorie-dense, so keeping the serving moderate, typically a small handful, ensures you get their benefits without overshooting daily energy needs,” Goyal said.

Choosing wholesome, minimally processed tea varieties and incorporating whole-food meals later in the morning also ensures that nutrition remains comprehensive rather than limited to small morning bites, she added.

So, a morning that includes dry fruits and tea can be both enjoyable and nourishing, especially when you enjoy it without rushing your system. When it fits within a well-structured eating pattern, Goyal mentioned.
