Where to drink tea
Chinese people drink tea every where. They gather at local tea houses and drink traditional Kung-fu tea with their families and friends. They invite friends to their homes and make tea themselves. They bring cups to their offices and drink tea while working. Tea has been into people's lives; they live with tea. You can drink tea anywhere you like and anytime you want.
Who to drink tea with
Tea is a good companion when with friends and families, even when alone. Tea brings good moods so that you want to share with your loved ones and so that you don’t feel too lonely when you’re alone. Like wine, tea is also a great means to make new friends. During the tea processing, you have more time and chances to chat and get to know more about the people you’re with.
There's no definite answers for when to drink tea, or what to drink. At tea houses or home, we drink tea with different people or by ourselves wherever and whenever.
