When was tea invented?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Tea, an infusion of herbs (flowers, leaves, stems, roots and/or bark of plants), in boiling water, ingested for medicinal use or as a beverage for re-hydration or simply for the taste has been around longer than man has been keeping written records.

Tea, the herbaceous plant grown for its leaves as a cash crop has been in cultivation for centuries.

The original "inventor" was Nature itself. Humankind twigged to the use very early on (I think they were still dragging their knuckles in the dirt at the time)

What is the shelf life of herbal tea?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I think it depends on how the tea is packaged... If the tea bags are individually wrapped (foil wrapped), I would say three years or more, but if they're not, such as Celestial Seasonings that come loose inside a box, I would say about a year. If you live in a humid climate, the tea would be susceptible to mold.

What is a cup of tea like when the teabag breaks?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If a tea bag breaks, the contents of the tea bag, which are usually finely-broken tea leaves (called fannings or dust), go out into the cup. These fine particles can be gritty and unpleasant to drink. In some cases, they can also make the tea infuse faster, becoming too strong (too bitter or astringent).

Depending on the size of the particles and the quality of the tea, the cup may still be pleasant to drink, or may not be.

You can strain the contents out with a strainer, but some low-quality tea bags contain such fine dust that it is hard to strain them out. A coffee filter or tea infuser with a fine stainless steel mesh can achieve better results for the most finely-broken tea dust.
