By drawing pictures on a cup of tea, chabaixi, an ancient Chinese tea art, has become popular recently. Chang Zhifeng, an inheritor（传承人） of chabaixi, noticed from a TV show that many people showed great interest in this art.
Chabaixi can create different pictures such as bum boos and mountains. There are many steps, from grinding（磨碎） tea, pouring boil cd water, stirring（搅拌） the mixture, to finally drawing the pictures. After seven times of pouring water and stirring, there will be enough dark foam（泡沫）. Then we can draw pictures on it with clear water and a stick. The process of drawing, or dlancha, must be finished in 20 minutes before the foam disappears.
"Chabaixi is one of the many forms of tea art in China. It becomes popular not only because it is a special Chinese tradition, but also because it gives us a window to see people's lifestyle in the Song Dynasty." Zhang said.
Years ago, this special art was close to disappearing completely.
