Well, for me tea and coffee are definitely one the things that I am practicing ever day!
I prefer to drink the tea with honey and sometimes lemon. Here, I would like to share some interesting facts about those who likes tea:
There is an estimated 1,500 different types of tea.
There are two different words for tea: te-derived (Min, a historical Chinese language) and cha-derived (Cantonese and Mandarin). The word a specific country uses for tea reveals where the country first acquired its tea.
Tea is the national drink in Iran and Afghanistan. Green tea is consumed as a thirst quencher, and black tea as a warming beverage. Both of them are prepared with lots of sugars.
Russians started drinking tea in the 17th century, but because of its high price, it did not become widely popular until the beginning of the 19th century. Tea in Russia has historically been prepared in a samovar, a heated metal container. The samovar keeps tea hot for hours.
Cheers!
