A Chinese saying goes that “Firewood, rice, cooking oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea are the seven necessities to begin a day.” Without doubt, tea is welcomed all over the world. According to the UN, tea is more than just a hot drink. It’s a big part of many cultures around the world.
You possibly know that people in China use top-grade tea to show respect when receiving important guests. Meanwhile, the British tradition of afternoon tea is an important part of that country’s identity. Making Malaysia’s pulled tea has become a sort of art form. As an expression of Moroccan hospitality (好客) and tradition, mint tea-a mix of green tea, spearmint leaves and sugar-is served during gatherings.
Apart from its cultural meaning, tea is also a medicine, used from ancient times to modern days. Li Shizhen, who was a Chinese Ming Dynasty herbalist, once said, “Tea is cold and lowers the fire.” The health benefits of tea are still being discovered today: preventing heart disease, obesity and cancer have all been linked to drinking green tea, according to the National Center for Biotechnology Information in the US.
