A giant cup was filled to the brim with piping hot tea as a team of 138 culinary experts broke a Guinness World Record for the largest cup of tea in the world on Thursday. In total, the team managed to fill the cup with 5,000 liters, or about 1,320 gallons, of delicious hot tea. The karak tea was prepared out using 5,000 teabags mixed with milk, cardamom and sugar. The previous record was set in Shanghai when the pot was filled with measly 4,050 litres of tea.
