• Historically consumed for medicinal benefits
• Later for religious reasons during the Zhou Dynasty
• By the Han dynasty in 200 BC it was consumed for taste (only for the rich)
• By 618 tea became common among the commoners
• By 900 tea was encouraged to be grown and could be found in tea shops for everyone to
enjoy!

28. The History of Tea

• The East India Company makes tea the most popular drink in England
• Afternoon tea time becomes the normal
• The EIC brings tea to America
• Because of the heavy taxes on tea, we throw the Boston Tea Party
• Many Americans make the switch to coffee
• By WWII, we can no longer get tea from Asia and switch to our
ally, India.
• The south creates sweet tea.

29. Preparation of tea
Time the Steep
• Different teas require different steep times.
• If tea steeps too long it often becomes bitter.
Leaf Expansion
• All teas require room for the leaf to expand as it
steeps.
• Make sure there is enough room for the leaf to
expand 3-5 times in size as it steeps.
Stop the Steeping
• Once the tea has steeped for the proper amount of
time, separate the leaves from the liquid.
• This stops the steeping process so the tea does not
oversteep and become bitter.
