Green tea is a type of tea that has not been fermented. Green tea retains some of its original ingredients, including tea polyphenols, chlorophyll and other ingredients. And tea also contains caffeine, which has a very refreshing effect, so many people drink green tea in summer. There are many ways to drink green tea. Let me introduce you to the correct way to drink green tea.

How to drink green tea?

1. Tasting tea in a porcelain cup

Porcelain cup green tea is suitable for brewing and drinking medium-to-high-end green tea, such as first- and second-grade fried green tea, pearl green tea, roasted green tea, sun-dried green tea, etc. The emphasis is on palatability, taste, or thirst quenching. Generally, you first observe the color, aroma, and shape of the tea leaves before brewing them in a cup. It is advisable to use the "mid-throwing method" or the "lower-throwing method", brew with boiling water at 95--100°C , cover the cup to prevent the aroma from dissipating, and maintain the water temperature to facilitate the development of the tea body and accelerate the sinking to the bottom of the cup. After 3-5 minutes, open the lid, smell the aroma of the tea, taste the tea, and drink until the tea is thick enough. This brewing and drinking method is more convenient for serving tea to guests and drinking tea during office hours.

For the cup brewing method, the ratio of tea leaves to water depends on people's tastes. Generally, 3 grams of tea in 200 ml of water is appropriate. Those who prefer a strong drink can add slightly more tea, and those who prefer a lighter drink can add slightly less tea.

2. Making tea in teapot

Generally, it is not advisable to drink delicate and precious green tea. Because there is too much water, it is not easy to cool down, which will suffocate the green tea leaves and cause the green tea leaves to lose their fresh fragrance. The pot brewing method is suitable for brewing medium and low-grade green tea. This kind of tea contains high fiber content, is resistant to brewing, and has a strong tea flavor. When making tea, first wash the pot, put green tea into the pot, brew it with 100°C boiling water until it is full, and drink it in a cup after 3-5 minutes. When there are many people drinking tea, it is better to brew it in a pot, because it is not about enjoying the tea, but about quenching thirst, drinking tea and having a heart-to-heart talk, or eating snacks to talk about tea friendship.

3.Drinking tea with a glass cup

Green tea brewed in a glass cup is suitable for drinking delicate and precious green tea, so as to fully appreciate the appearance and inner quality of the famous tea.
​
Before brewing and drinking, appreciate the color, aroma and shape of dry green tea. Take a cup of tea, place it on a piece of white paper with no peculiar smell, and observe the shape of the tea leaves. The shapes of famous teas vary depending on the variety, such as strips, flats, snails, or needles. Appreciate the green tea production process and observe the color of the green teas, whether they are green, dark green, yellow-green, or hairy. Then dry-smell the aroma of green tea, or the aroma of butter, or chestnut, or fried in a pot, or the indescribable fresh tea aroma, and fully appreciate the regional natural charm of various famous teas, which is called "appreciating tea". Then start brewing.

Precautions for brewing green tea

1. When brewing green tea, the water temperature should be controlled at around 80°C~90°C. If you are brewing green tea powder, just brew it with warm boiled water between 40°C and 60°C. The serving size is 2 grams of green tea powder with 450 ml of boiled water.

2. Do not drink the first brew of tea. Shake it with hot water and then pour it away.
