There are only two types of people in this world, those who love tea and those who do not love tea. So if you do not love tea that means either the tea maker was not good enough or you have not tasted the type of tea that is supposed to be your cup of tea. There is actually a third type that consists of those who have not tasted any type and let me tell you that you belong to Mars, because come on, it is pretty universal drink and each and every continent has its own type of tea. So no one is going to force anyone into trying anything here, but find your cup, because it is worth it. So here are the best tea quotes and sayings that will make you fall in love with this magical drink.
Prove me wrong but if each one of us was not supposed to have a type of tea that we love, then why does the phrase “cup of tea” even exist. There is the classic masala chai, then there are the delicate flower ones like chamomile and something, then there are green teas, pink teas, red teas, black teas and I can go on and on. You have an ocean to choose from.
I am here to say that if coffee gives you the energy, then tea gives you calmness. So keep calm, grab a cup of tea and look at these tea quotes:
