Greetings to all the members of this warm community.Today I want to participate in the tribute to the International Day of Tea, this millenary beverage deserves respect for being one of the most consumed in the world and one of the most beneficial to our health.
It is native to Asia, stands out in its production and consumption India, China, Japan, Sri Lanka. Turkey, and many more, in America the most prominent countries in its production and consumption are Argentina and Chile.
Tea comes from the Camellia Sinensis plant, there are several types of tea depending on the season and the part of the tree where the leaves are taken, so you can get green, black, white, blue tea, etc. It is also mixed with other plants, fruits and even flower petals, to obtain different flavors.

In many Asian cultures such as China and Japan, there are since ancient times a whole ceremonial to serve tea, also in India and Russia these ceremonies are part of their culture, perhaps the best known is that of England is a custom to take tea at three o'clock in the afternoon, the ceremonies and rituals are diverse, teapots and cups of porcelain or other well-crafted material are used, which show delicacy and beauty, fine sweets or cookies are served and is considered an act of socialization, a time dedicated to rest and reflection.
In my particular case, my family is a faithful coffee lover, but we use tea a lot, mainly as a natural medicine, not only the tea that comes from the tea tree, but other plants prepared as infusion and that also receive this denomination.
Manzanilla y anis
I really like to use chamomile with anise, my children laugh because it is my remedy par excellence, but really to adjust the ailments associated with digestion, it has always worked well for me, ginger and turmeric I use it for pressure and circulation, I like linden tea to relax and lastly please do not laugh at me, buy a tea to help me lose weight, it is natural and the best thing about it is that it controls metabolism, helps keep glucose levels and pressure, stable, so if I do not lose weight I will feel better.🤣🤣
I can tell you that to prepare the infusions I use the sachets that come from the factory, but I also love to prepare my natural infusions, directly from the plants that I have on my small balcony, in other cases I take ginger, turmeric and rosemary from my sister's farm.
I hope I have not tired you with my small recognition to Te on its international day.
Thanking you for your reading and time spent.
