Beli (Bael, Aegle marmelos) is a sacred hard-shelled fruit related to citrus. Beli mal (dried flowers) tea is a caffeine-free herbal tea — earthy, slightly sweet, deeply calming. Traditional Ayurvedic medicine uses it for digestion and cooling.

Beli mal tea at any tea kade or Ayurveda pharmacy — 50-100 LKR per cup. Fresh beli juice (sometimes at village stalls) sweeter and thicker than wood apple. Excellent bedtime drink — no caffeine, calming, aromatic.
