The drink of Asia for hundreds of years, tea is believed to have been brought to
Europe by the Dutch. Today, from the remotest corner of Ladakh to Buckingham
Palace, tea is synonymous with cheer.
It is rightly said that there will be no agreement on a perfect cup of tea. Though for
tea drinkers the brew is addictive, the preferred method of preparation and taste
differs from person to person and region to region.
Today many varieties of tea and tea brands are available in the market. An
innovation is the tea-bag that is easy, quick and less messy than traditional
brewing tea. Green tea is popular in China and the far East. In Japan, the tea
ceremony is a traditional way of greeting guests and is a social occasion. Unlike the
tea we are familiar with, green tea is not drunk with sugar or milk.
Some scientists believe tea prevents tooth decay because it is a rich source of
flouride. Tea is also a folk remedy for stomach upsets, flu and diarrhoea. Research
suggests that drinking tea reduces the risk of heart disease and cancer and lowers
cholesterol levels in the blood.
