"Wine", in the eyes of the vast majority of countrymen, can be called "cultural double wall" together with "tea". Because the tradition of drinking and drinking tea originated almost simultaneously.

The taste of drinking is about culture and life, while the taste of drinking tea is about charm and elegance. Although the brewing process, taste, texture, and meaning of the two are different, they share the same cultural trend that has been passed down through generations.

Throughout history, there have been countless wine immortals, wine saints, and alcoholics known for their drinking. But the only person who can say 'In ancient times, all the sages were lonely, only the drinkers kept their names' is probably Li Bai, who said' When the emperor calls, he cannot board the ship, and claims to be a fairy in wine '.

Lu Yu, known for his tea ceremony, tea style, and tea art, is known as the Tea Saint and Tea Immortal by the world. But the person who truly integrated tea with poetic culture was the poet Bai Juyi.

How many people can compare the artistic conception of "drinking a cup of tea or reciting a poem? But since ancient times, there have been many people who drink alcohol, while there are few who understand the taste of tea.

The proverb 'Alcohol is the essence of food, the more you drink, the younger you become' not only expresses the mentality of drinkers, but also depicts the wisdom of our ancestors who are addicted to alcohol.

The poet Li Bai once said, "A bell, a drum, and a jade are not precious enough. I hope you will never wake up after being drunk for a long time." He found pleasure in drinking and also found a spiritual outlet. It turned out that Li Bai was the one who understood the psychology of drinkers the most!

In fact, the next sentence of this proverb is the essence. "Tea is the soul of the tree, and the more you taste, the more spiritual you are.". You drink your jade liquid and nectar, and I taste the flavors of my life.

Although tea and alcohol have their own advantages, they both immerse people in the process of life, allowing those who drink or drink tea to find a spiritual home. It's not difficult to find happiness, but you need to learn how to drink alcohol or tea first.

Firstly, alcohol is the essence of grains, and the more you drink, the younger you become

From the surface meaning of this proverb, since alcohol is made from grains, people who frequently drink alcohol are not only physically healthy and delicious, but also younger than those who do not drink alcohol.

There are many common sayings about "alcohol" in the community, which actually repeatedly emphasize the benefits of drinking. But everyone must know the truth that 'small drinks bring joy, while large drinks harm the body'.

Alcohol is made from grains, not drinking is a sin; Alcohol is the water of the Yangtze River, the more one drinks it, the more beautiful it becomes. In fact, it is similar to the common saying in the title that only those who have a habit of drinking alcohol in their daily lives understand the joy of drinking and the taste of life.

Moderate drinking every day is beneficial to health, but when it reaches the level of excessive drinking, various diseases will quietly emerge. As a cultural carrier, the original purpose of "wine" was to improve the quality of life.

But if you don't have self-control when drinking alcohol, or if you are addicted to alcohol or rely on alcohol to drown your sorrows, it is easy to drink too much alcohol.

Over time, it can lead to the occurrence of diseases such as alcoholic liver disease. Therefore, when drinking alcohol, it is important to first understand one's alcohol tolerance and then limit it appropriately in order to avoid harm to the body.

Secondly, tea is the soul of the tree, and the more you taste it, the more spirited it becomes

Shennong discovered tea leaves while tasting hundreds of herbs, and then taught people how to use tea leaves to make medicinal soup. After drinking this medicinal soup, ancient ancestors would have a feeling of clearing their hearts, improving their eyesight, and feeling refreshed.

So the trend of drinking tea began to become popular, and the time of large-scale tea planting was during the Qin Dynasty. At that time, the nobles and literati class had already treated tea as a valuable beverage to entertain guests.

Later, with the development of time, during the Western Han Dynasty, large-scale planting of tea trees began, resulting in a significant increase in tea production. Even ordinary people can drink tea on a regular basis.

After this, tea culture began to take shape and paved the way for the trend of tea drinking in later generations. So drinking tea is also a culture, and it is more elegant than drinking alcohol.

Due to the high nutritional content in tea, drinking tea regularly is not only beneficial for health, but also enhances personal taste.

From this point, it can be fully proved that those who enjoy drinking tea have a far sighted mindset, while those who are greedy for wine glasses can only fall into the world of thousands of miles.

Drinking tea is a state of mind, and cooking tea is also a spiritual enjoyment. Bai Juyi, as a prominent poet in the mid Tang Dynasty, had a set of skills in tea drinking, brewing, and evaluating tea.

He has created over 60 tea poems throughout his life, with the main purpose of expressing the spiritual satisfaction brought by drinking and cooking tea.

So he is a master of tea ceremony, whether it's morning, afternoon, evening, visiting friends, or entertaining guests, he has almost formed an inseparable bond with tea.

He wrote in "New Home, Early Spring, Part Two": "The earth is moist and the east wind is warm, leisurely walking on grass sprouts. He calls on children to move bamboo, and invites guests to taste tea. The dripping eaves are frozen, and the dust floats in the gaps. Who is the neighbor before the new home arrives?" In fact, it expresses the state of mind of inviting guests to taste tea.

Conclusion

Whether drinking alcohol or drinking tea, it is a pleasure for both the body and the mind. However, everyone should know that everything should be measured with precision.

When drinking alcohol, do not overindulge in drinking, and when tasting tea, do not neglect time. After all, going too far can lead to losing the meaning and mood of drinking or tasting.
