Today I will speak to you both for a cheap and delicious beverage. This beverage is tea. . Now I will tell you a tea legend. The first sip of tea is very early, BC. It dates back to 2737, until the time of the Chinese Empire. According to myth, Shen Yung, one of China's first emperors, witnesses the tea plant falling into hot water by chance. With this discovery, the emperor is caught up in the tea, and again, according to legend, he has been in that area for seven years and is constantly drinking tea. A similar of this myth is also told in India. For Indians, the first person to drink tea was the Buddha. When Buddha was sleeping, he chewed a piece of tea leaf and removed the fatigue. The first mention of tea in Europe takes place in 1559, thousands of years later. The year 1606 is the year when the tea met with Europe.
