Tea is enjoyed differently around the world, from how it's made and drunk to where it's enjoyed. According to the ways of making tea, tea is divided into white tea, black tea, green tea, etc. In Tibet, people often boil tea with salt and butter. Tea is drunk at home or in public places like tea houses.
Tea is a part of culture and connects to history, health, education, and communication. It's often included in social activities, like the British tradition of afternoon tea. Families or friends can communicate with each other while having afternoon tea.
Chinese people also use tea to make tasty dishes. Originally used as a medicine in ancient times, it is now not just a kind of drink, but also great seasonings（调味品）. Some delicious dishes made with tea are tea eggs and Dragon Well Tea Shrimp（虾）.
Before drinking tea, remember these tips:
• Drink tea while it's hot.
• The best time to drink is in between meals. It is bad for your stomach if you drink tea just before meals, during meals or soon after meals.
• Don't drink too much strong tea.
