Hey there, tea lovers! ☕ Did you know that during China’s Ming Dynasty, tea became super popular, and they changed how they made it? Let’s dive into the world of Ming Dynasty tea culture!
Back in the Ming Dynasty, people wanted to enjoy tea in a simpler and more natural way. Instead of complicated brewing methods from earlier times, they decided to make it easy. They boiled water in a kettle and steeped loose tea leaves in clay teapots. This way, they could taste the pure flavor of the tea leaves.
They also used small teacups that helped concentrate the tea’s lovely aroma. Imagine sipping warm tea from a tiny cup and enjoying its delightful smell! 🍵
