Tea is a wonderful thing. It can warm you up on a cold day and sooth your throat when you are sick. After water, tea is the most widely consumed beverage in the world. I know I personally have at least 8 different kinds of tea in my cabinet and I would have more if I had the room for them. I love the variety of flavors available and the way each flavor can provide a different feeling. To me jasmine tea is a comforting flavor to help digest after a meal while I look to Apricot Ceylon to wake me up.
An aspect of tea that I find really interesting is that it is present in cultures all over the world. Tea is believed to have started in China, as they have the earliest record of tea consumption, around the 10th century BC. To this day they continue to carry out extensive tea ceremonies and see tea presentation as an art.
