[Beauty, tell me in detail, let us vulgar people learn too. 】

[The West is trouble! 】

[Not necessarily, do you know the whole process of drinking tea? 】

[I remember being troublesome and participating in a tea culture. 】

……

"Wait a moment."

Zhang Feng motioned Zhang Ting to wait for a while to explain, and then said to the camera: "There are also many ways to drink tea. I will take this opportunity to introduce it very briefly."

"Smelling tea means that after the host and guest are seated, the host takes out the tea leaves and introduces the characteristics and flavor of the variety, and the guests pass on the tea leaves in turn.

Warming the pot is to first pour boiling water into the empty pot to make the pot body warm, and then pour the water into the "tea boat" - a kind of purple sand tea tray.

To fill the tea is to use a teaspoon to fill the empty pot with tea leaves, usually more than half full.Do not grasp the tea leaves with your hands, so as not to mix in luck or miscellaneous flavors.

To moisten the tea, pour boiling water into the pot. When the pot is full, use bamboo chopsticks to scrape off the noodle foam in the pot; then pour the tea into the "tea boat".

After brewing, at this point, the tea can be officially brewed.Use boiling water, but not boiling water.

After pouring the pot, cover the pot and pour boiling water on the outside of the pot to make the temperature inside and outside the pot the same.

Warming the cup is to use the water from the original warming pot and moistening tea in the tea boat to soak the small teacup in the interval of making tea.

Transport the pot, after the first tea is brewed, carry the pot around the side of the boat for several weeks to prevent the water droplets from the bottom of the pot from dripping into the tea cup.

To pour tea is to line up the small teacups and lift the teapot to pour back and forth, which is commonly known as "Xunhe".Do not pour a second cup after filling one cup to avoid uneven shades.

Serving tea is to hold the first cup of tea with both hands and respect the guests present; if there are more than one guest, the first cup of tea should be offered to the respected elders.

Tasting tea means that guests hold a small teacup, observe the color of the tea, smell the smell of the tea, smell the tea, and then move between the nose and lips, sniffing or sipping, as if intoxicated, forgetting about both. "

Zhang Feng is a person who likes to drink tea and dreams of opening a teahouse (not a place for playing cards in the countryside). He has a deep research on tea ceremony.

【Crack! 】

【applaud! 】

[6's flying, the anchor's memory is simply amazing! 】

[The old ancestor's routine is really deep. After hearing this, I feel like drinking tea like a Shabi, rude! 】

"Let's invite our beautiful lady Zhang to introduce the etiquette and things to pay attention to when drinking coffee." Zhang Feng turned the camera to Zhang Ting, and turned on the mobile phone in front of Zhang Ting.

"Then let me tell you, it may be a bit cumbersome. Coffee is an indispensable drink in people's daily life. Of course, it is mainly Westerners. Are we in China? Maybe young people often drink it now... But usually when we drink coffee, we just drink coffee. Drinking coffee, I didn't pay attention to some of its etiquette, so it looks more casual, not elegant.

The etiquette of coffee can make us look very elegant, and the temperament of the whole person will be very different. Let me introduce the etiquette of drinking coffee for you!
Before starting to drink coffee, take a sip of ice water. Ice water can help the taste of coffee emerge vividly, so that every taste bud on your tongue is fully prepared to experience the delicious coffee, and it also cleans your mouth .

Second, when you have a cup of coffee in front of you, don't rush to drink it. It should be a gradual process like tea or wine tasting, so as to achieve the purpose of relaxation, refreshment and enjoyment.Smell the aroma first, and taste the tangy aroma of coffee; then look at the color, and feel the visual impression of coffee.

Third, taste. First, take a sip of black coffee to feel the taste of original coffee. The coffee should taste sweet, slightly bitter, slightly sour but not astringent.Then taste it in small sips, do not rush to swallow the coffee in one gulp, but hold it in your mouth temporarily, let the coffee and saliva mix with the air for a while, and then swallow it.

Every cup of coffee we drink has been grown for five years before it can bloom and bear fruit. It has gone through complicated procedures such as harvesting and baking, and is carefully prepared by the coffee maker.

Therefore, first take a sip of the "black coffee" without sugar and creamer while it is hot, and feel the flavor of the coffee before fat powder is applied.Then add just the right amount of sugar, take another sip, and finish with the creamer.In this way, the taste of coffee is on the tip of the tongue.

Fourth, drink coffee while it is hot.Because the tannic acid in coffee is easy to change during the cooling process, which will make the taste sour and affect the flavor of coffee.The best temperature for drinking coffee is 85-88 degrees Celsius.

Because regular coffee has a less stable texture, it's best served hot.In order not to reduce the taste of coffee, soak the coffee cup in boiling water in advance.The proper temperature of coffee is 83 degrees Celsius at the moment of brewing, 80 degrees Celsius when poured into the cup, and 61-62 degrees Celsius when it reaches the mouth, which is ideal.

Generally speaking, tasting the coffee served by the host while it is hot is also a basic etiquette for drinking coffee.If it is a cup of high-quality coffee, the taste will be the same as when it is hot, or even better, except that the aroma will decrease after it is cooled.

Fifth, drink in moderation. Coffee contains caffeine, so drink it in moderation.Don't fill the cup with coffee. If you look at the full cup of coffee, you will lose interest in drinking it.

Generally, it is only seven or eight points full, which is an appropriate amount. A moderate amount of coffee can moderately promote the body to recover from fatigue and refresh the mind.

Generally, 80-100cc is the right amount of coffee. Sometimes if you want to drink three or four cups in a row, you have to dilute the strength of the coffee or add a lot of milk, otherwise it will cause nausea. Might as well make more changes to make the coffee more delicious.

How about sugar and creamer, except only drink black coffee (without sugar and creamer).When adding sugar, if it is cube sugar, it should be added in the following order: first put the cube sugar on the spoon, then gently put the spoon into the cup.This prevents the coffee from spilling out of the cup when sugar cubes are added.Creamer can be added directly. Similarly, in order to avoid coffee splashing, the position should be as low as possible when adding.

The use of coffee cups and saucers? The coffee drunk after a meal is generally served in a pocket-sized cup.The cup ear of this kind of cup is small, and the finger cannot go out.But even with a larger cup, there is no need to put your finger through the ear to hold the cup.The cups and saucers for the coffee are also specially made.They should be placed in front of you or on your right side, with the ears pointing to the left.

The correct way to hold a coffee cup is to hold the handle with your thumb and forefinger to lift the cup.When drinking coffee, hold the ear of the coffee cup with your right hand, gently hold the coffee saucer with your left hand, and sip slowly to your mouth to avoid making noise.

It is not advisable to raise a cup and swallow, or bow your head to drink coffee.Sometimes you will encounter some inconvenient situations. For example, sitting on a sofa far away from the table, it is inconvenient to drink coffee with both hands. At this time, you can place the coffee saucer at the chest level with your left hand and drink the coffee cup with your right hand.After drinking, the coffee cup should be placed in the coffee saucer immediately, and the two should not be placed separately.

Is it the etiquette of drinking coffee? Going to a cafe to taste coffee is mainly for relaxation, so it is easy to take it as the priority.But in the cafes frequented by the upper class, due attention should be paid to personal demeanor and attire.

There are some unwritten coffee traditions that may be important, such as not holding the cup to talk non-stop, or running around the room with coffee, and the cup should be put down at this time.

Do not add sugar or creamer to other people’s coffee without their permission. If you are a guest at someone’s house, do not pour coffee for yourself or others, because this is the obligation and right of the host.

Just brewed coffee is too hot, you can use a coffee spoon to gently stir it in the cup to cool it down, or wait for it to cool naturally before drinking it.

Trying to cool the coffee with your mouth is very indecent.

The coffee spoon is used to stir the coffee. When stirring, the movement should be gentle. Do not jingle the coffee cup. At the same time, do not use the coffee spoon to scoop the coffee, which is also indecent.

Sometimes you can eat some snacks while drinking coffee, but don't hold the coffee cup in one hand and the snacks in the other, eating and drinking alternately.

Put down your snacks when you drink coffee, and put down your coffee cup when you eat snacks. "

Zhang Ting finished talking about the basic number of ways to drink coffee in one breath. Even Zhang Feng was a little surprised. This memory is so good that the audience in the live broadcast room also swiped the whole screen with a wave of 666.

"Ms. Zhang, can I interview you for the audience? May I ask how you did it?" Zhang Feng asked pretending to be formal, which caused countless audiences to laugh.
