National Hot Tea Day is always celebrated on January 12. Tea is the second most popular drink in the United States, behind only coffee. A cold January day (or night) is a great time to enjoy a cup of hot tea. To most of us, tea is delicious and relaxing drink. Drinking tea is healthy for us. With these things in mind, it is only fitting that today — National Hot Tea Day.
Tea has been drunk for almost 5,000 years. Its origin dates back to ancient (古代的) China. According to legend (传说), in 2737 BC, some tea leaves fell into a pot of water that was being boiled (煮) for Emperor Yan, also known as Shen-Nung. He drank it, finding it delicious and relaxing. Legend also says that he only drank tea after that day. Tea became popular in Chinese and Asian culture.
But, it wasn’t until 1600s AD that tea was brought to Europe (欧洲) and became popular. The first shipment of tea to Europe is recorded by the Dutch East India Company. Tea was sold in a coffee house
in London in 1657, Samuel Pepys tasted tea in 1660, and Catherine of Braganza took the tea-drinking habit to the English court when she married (嫁) Charles II in 1662.
Let’s return to National Hot Tea Day, and think about how we can celebrate the day. I have some advice! Perhaps, you and I can have a cup of hot tea during breakfast, lunch, and dinner. And we can even drink another cup of tea during the evening hours.
Let’s begin drinking healthy tea. Tea is good for our health. It can keep us quiet, helping us relax. Perhaps that’s why so many people like drinking tea.
