So, what comes to your mind when you think or talk about tea, well, the aroma, the taste, tradition, or social gathering?

-
So, in today's lesson we are gonna look at the different types of tea, in fact, the most popular ones in the world
所以,在今天的課程我們要來看看各種不同的茶,事實上,也是世界上最受歡迎的,
-
because many people have no clue how to serve different types of tea or how a type of tea should be taken.
因為許多人不知道如何泡不同種類的茶,或是某一種茶該怎麼喝。
-
So, that's what you are gonna learn, and let's get started.

The first one is English Breakfast.
首先是英國早餐茶。

Well, English Breakfast is one of the most common type of tea that you would find in the world.
英國早餐茶是世界上最常見的茶之一。
-
Well, it was initially just called as Breakfast Tea and it was developed by the tea master.
原本只稱作早餐茶,並由一位茶葉專家發揚光大。
-
He was, in fact, a Scottish tea master, his name was Drysdale.
他其實是一位蘇格蘭茶葉專家,名字是Drysdale。
-
So, Drysdale was the one who developed this type of tea, and, in fact, it is a blend of fine black teas including the Keemun Tea.
所以說,Drysdale將這種茶發揚光大,實際上他還混合了良好的紅茶,包括祁門紅茶。
-
So, why the name English Breakfast?
那麼,為何叫英國早餐茶呢?
-
Well, eventually this type of tea was extremely popular in England,
這種茶最終在英國變得非常受歡迎,
-
so the London, you know, tea shops or the tea stores renamed it to English Breakfast
所以倫敦茶商將它重新命名為英國早餐茶
-
because it is said that the aroma of this tea is very similar to a fresh hot toast from the oven.
因為據說這種茶的香味很像剛從烤箱裡出來的土司。
-
So, well, maybe that's exactly the reason why it is named as English Breakfast Tea.

-
And how this tea should be served? Well, it should be served with milk or lemon.
那麼這種茶要怎麼喝呢?要加牛奶或是檸檬。
-
But please do not mix lemon and milk together because that would curdle the milk, right?
但請不要檸檬和牛奶一起加,因為那會使牛奶凝結,對吧?
-
So, either it can be served with milk or with lemon, okay?
它可以連同牛奶或者檸檬一起享用,可以嗎?
