How do you make tea? Chances are you’ve been doing it wrong.
For many people in China, brewing tea is a ritual akin to meditation. And there is a proper ceremony called gongfu cha.
Gongfu means skill, and cha means tea. It’s a form of Chinese tea service that dates back to the 14th century in Fujian. It places emphasis on the tea’s taste, temperature, and quality.
In this video, we’ll run you through how to do the tea ceremony correctly.
