A man laughs while drinking tea as another passes holding karak in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, Wednesday, Aug. 24, 2022. Karak is the informal national drink of the United Arab Emirates, long priced at just 1 dirham, a bit less than 30 U.S. cents. But now, as supply chain shortages and Russia’s war on Ukraine lead to price spikes across the world, Dubai’s tea sellers are bumping up prices to 1.50 dirhams, or just over 40 cents. That’s a blow to migrant workers who depend on the drink as a daily ritual offering respite and fuel. (AP Photo/Jon Gambrell)
