Tea is nearly 5,000 years old and was discovered by a Chinese emperor Shen Nong when some tea leaves accidentally blew into a pot of boiling water and a brown liquid was infused. The Emperor was interested in the new liquid, drank some, and found it very refreshing. And so, according to legend, tea was created. In the 1610s tea became popular throughout Europe and the American colonies. |
