Tea is one of the oldest drinks on the planet, with many mysteries and legends associated with it. According to one of them, the mythical Chinese emperor Shen-nong himself was engaged in the preparation of various healing decoctions. They helped him maintain good spirits on long journeys.

One day, several leaves from a tea bush fell into his cauldron of boiling water. The Emperor tried this drink and felt a surge of strength, which helped him stay alert all day. From that time on, he decided to drink only it, starting a tradition that has remained unchanged to this day. It is not for nothing that drinking tea in many cultures is considered a special, almost sacred ritual, and recipes for hot teas - black, green and fruit - do not lose their popularity, are supplemented and improved every year.
