Free topic: Love for te

Good evening, people, this time is a free topic for choose, so I will write about te, just te;  because I love te and I can't live without it in winter or summer: there is no only season for te.

I start with a little bit of the history of te: a long time ago in 2737 b.C., the chinese imperator Sheng Nung discovered the flavor of te in a daily situation, he was siting sleepy under a bush in his garden, and on his side it was boiling water in a container. When a leaf fall of the bush and touched the boiling water, the imperator tasted the flavor and he loved it. This bush is the Camellia Sinensis.

The chinese people developed this knowledge about the leaf of Camellia and they experimented with the time of prosecution, so today there are four principal kind of te that depends of the driyng of the leaf: black, red, white and green.

Today, the principal countries that produce te are: China,India, Sri Lanka, Taiwán, Japón, Nepal, Australia, Argentina y Kenia. Is the drink most famous after water, and is a healty way to quench the thirst. The consume of te is beneficial for health, especially the green kind, because it contains antioxidant and catequinos with anti inflammatory and neuroprotector characteristics, so it reduce the health risks like strokes, cognitive damage and osteoporosis. 

I like drink te for this positive aspects, but above all for it flavor mixed with differents plants, fruits, and roots. An example: I love black te with cinnamon and ginger; and  I like drink green te with ginger and lemon verbena. In this winter, I can't survive to cold without te, no discussion.

People: drink te, it give you a lot of calm and warm moments.
