Malaysia is a Southeast Asian country and is also a major tea producer in the region. Tea culture has been prevalent in Malaysia since 1405, when Zheng He, a Chinese mariner and diplomat from the Ming Dynasty (1368–1644), known for commanding expeditionary treasure voyages to Southeast Asia, brought tea from China to Malaysia.

Malaysia was the second-largest tea export destination for China in 2022. How much do you know about Teh Tarik, one of the most popular national beverages in Malaysia?
