During the classes

Presenter 1 . Good afternoon, dear guests! We have been waiting for you for a long time, we are not starting the holiday. For each of us there is a place and a word.

Presenter 2.

Very often for events
And for the hustle and bustle of days
We don’t remember our old people
We forget about her.
And even more familiar
We fly to the moon
Recall Russian customs
Recall our old days.

Presenter 1. Of course, in one meeting we will not be able to tell about all the traditions and customs of the Russian people. But many of them we follow now. (Turns to the Leader). So what are we going to tell our guests today?

Presenter 2 . How about what? About tea.

Presenter 1   Yes, to be sure, our grandfathers and grandmothers loved to drink a fragrant tea after a hard day.

Presenter 2 . Or after the bath ...

Presenter 1 . Have you ever been invited to tea? It is safe to say that you were not invited to a cup of tea. We have a “tea country” and drink it a lot, but the culture of tea drinking has been lost. Very few are familiar with the traditions of tea drinking. Tea drinking is one of the paths to a healthy lifestyle.

Presenter 2 . The tea ceremony is a rite that originated in China before our era. Currently in Japan there are special tea houses for tea drinking. Entering the house, a person leaves all the worries of the day outside its walls. After tea drinking, people are relieved of stress, they calm down and become more healthy and cheerful.

Presenter 1 . Russian tea drinking is different from Japanese. It is associated with the noise of a boiling samovar. In Russia, tea began to be consumed in 1638. They brought him from Mongolia. At first, tea was used as a medicine, then as a drink that relieves fatigue and has a beneficial effect on the entire human body.

Presenter 2 . And although now in many families the samovar has squeezed the teapot on the festive table, like 100 years ago, not a single festivity is complete without tea.

Tea history

Some historical sources claim that in 350 tea bushes were introduced into the culture of China, and a little later in 805-810 they appeared in Japan, and at about the same time (in 828 years) - Korea. Only centuries later, in 1516, when the Portuguese opened the sea route in China, does the story of the appearance of tea, as an exotic drink, begin in Europe. Moreover, at first, it was available only at the Portuguese royal court.

Today, tea is processed in more than 30 countries around the world. This characterizes the popularity and quality of this drink, attracted by millions of people from different parts of the globe.

TEA (in Chinese茶   - “tea”; in Japaneseお茶   “O-tya”) is a drink that is obtained by brewing, brewing, or infusing a leaf of tea bush that has been prepared in a special way. Also called tea is the leaf itself, used to make this amazing drink.

Initially, in the early days of tea, the Chinese cooked its leaves in water along with other spices (salt, ginger). Then they learned to dry the leaves, grind them into powder and then mix with boiling water. Only the Ming dynasty learned how to make tea in a teapot, and then pour it in portions.

Tea was first brought to Russia in 1638 for Tsar Mikhail Fedorovich. The Mongolian Altan Khan Kuchkun sent the first four pounds of tea through the Moscow ambassador, Vasily Starkov, for the gifts brought by the Russian ambassadors. At first, the gift did not impress, but then they tasted the drink during the solemn tasting. As in France, tea has become popular primarily as a healing drink; ten years later in Moscow it was possible to buy up to ten of its varieties.
  But until the middle of the XIX century, not everyone could afford tea. During capitalism, tea was considered the drink of the bourgeoisie and merchants. By the end of the 19th century, peasants and the proletariat could afford tea. In tea shops in Moscow you could find a wide selection of tea.

Tea was delivered to Russia overland via Siberia; tea delivery took a long time. Tea was carefully packaged, its quality was high, and the price was not affordable for everyone.
  In 1769, an agreement was signed between Russia and China on the first supply of tea

Unlike Europe and America, tea was delivered to Russia by land: via Kyakhta (Kyakhta, a regional center inRepublic of Buryatia, at the border with Mongolia, 235 kilometers south ofUlan-Ude.) and Siberia.

Even very rare Chinese teas fell into Russia, for example, yellow Chinese "imperial" tea, which the Chinese sold only to Russians and only for furs. However, the main type of tea consumed in European Russia was black, due to the fact that its price was several times lower than green.
  In the 19th century, attempts began to be made to create tea plantations directly in the Russian Empire: in Georgia and Azerbaijan, as well as in southern Russia (present-day Krasnodar Territory).

Brewed tea in the famous samovars, which were made of bronze and copper. The most common in Russia at all times was black tea. Tea is drunk with sugar, lemon, honey or jam. In Russia, it became a habit to drink tea after eating with butter buns and sweets. Many tea lovers add onions, ginger, spices or orange slices to their favorite drink.

French writer Antoine Saint Exupery

Exupery said:  “The greatest luxury in the world is the luxury of human communication.” And if you were invited to tea, to tea, it means you are invited to socialize, to have a friendly conversation.

Tea party appeared long ago, somehow organically blended with the ancient traditions of Russian hospitality. And the traditions were very wonderful. Each era brought something of its own, guest forms and rules of etiquette, utensils and an assortment of dishes for the table changed, but the commandments of hospitality, which prescribed to welcome guests with bread and salt and a good attitude, remained unchanged.

Student 3________________________________

In folk art, there are manyproverbs.

Have a cup of tea, forget the longing.

Do not drink tea, so do not live in the world.

Drink tea - do not chop wood.

You don’t drink tea, where do you get your strength?

We do not miss tea - we drink seven cups.

Presenter 1   _____________ will tell us about the types of tea and the stages of its processing

Student 4 _________________________________________

Types of tea

The black.   Gives an intense infusion and has a tart taste, it is the most popular. It has many varieties. Suppliers: India, China, Sri Lanka, Ceylon. (Demonstrates)

Red.   It has a peculiar taste and aroma. Produce it mainly in China. Tea is poured immediately into a cup, poured with boiling water and covered with a lid, for 3-4 minutes. They drink such tea without sugar and a little chilled. (Demonstrates)

Yellow. It is made from high-grade raw materials - young shoots and tea buds, so the production of this tea is limited. After all, it can be collected only in limited quantities. It has a delicate aroma, pleasant taste and good mood. This is Lipton tea.

Green.   By distribution in second place. High grades of green tea have a silver-green color, the color of the infusion is light green. It has a peculiar taste and astringency, and even with an increased consistency it knits. They drink this tea without sugar, it quenches thirst well. The supplier of this tea is China. (Demonstrates)

Flavored.  Sometimes tea is flavored. The most famous flavors of any tea is lemon tea, tea with fruits and berries.

Health Tea is the best friend.

Indeed, scientists have found that tea has many useful properties: it strengthens the immune system, strengthens the body's resistance to various infections, relieves headaches, and eliminates indigestion. Quenches thirst especially well and restores tea with lemon faster. I know a folk remedy for toothache. Mix finely chopped or crushed garlic with tea infusion and hold this mixture in your mouth for several minutes.

With inflammation, the eyes are washed with chilled, strongly brewed tea.

Lotions of tea help with sunburn.

Healing tea   - This is a rich pharmacy, tea leaf contains a stimulating substance useful for stomach acid, essential oils that create this unique aroma. There are 4 times more vitamin C in fresh tea leaves than in lemon, and 10 times more in green tea than in black. Thanks to vitamins, tea has a beneficial effect on the body: increases mental activity, eliminates fatigue, improves digestion. Among medicinal plants, tea is one of the most honorable places.

Presenter 1.   About varieties of tea will tell us ____________________________

Student 6______________________

Varieties of tea.

Sheet   - it is more expensive and higher grade - small-leaved; and large-leaved - its variety is slightly lower than small-leaved.

Granular tea  - This is the tea from the remaining small crumbs after sorting. Usually, these crumbs are turned into powder, and then granules of various shapes are formed. Tea crumbs are used in tea bags, because they are quickly soluble. But the aroma is incomparable with the leaf.

Blend   - This is a mixture of dry tea grown on various plantations and processed in various tea factories. Each blend has its own number and a special name.

Leading 2.   _____________________________ will tell about Russian tea etiquette

Student 7 _______________________________________________

Speaking about the traditions of tea drinking in our country, one cannot ignore tea etiquette.

A tea table is served in advance. A samovar is placed at one end, and a tray with cups and glasses is placed near it. Here is the place of the mistress. Baskets with several varieties of cookies, plates with sandwiches, sweet cakes, as well as creamers and plates with sliced \u200b\u200blemon, are placed around the table.

Mistress pours tea. If the house has an adult daughter, then this obligation is transferred to her. Duty is not difficult, but requires a certain dexterity, grace, skill.

Nicode cups should not be poured to the brim and should try to please the taste of everyone. But guests should not be too demanding, especially young people, they should drink tea, as it is given. It is impossible to blow tea for it to cool. Pouring into a saucer is indecent. The hostess's duty is to offer cookies and pies.

Presenter 2   Tables are served. And tea has not yet been brewed. How to make tea? __________________________ will tell us

Student 8______________________________

Brew tea should be freshly boiled water, but boiling water should not boil vigorously - such water can kill the aroma of the best tea. Water should be removed from the fire at the moment when bubbles begin to rise from the bottom, and it will turn white, that is, it will boil with a white key. Chlorinated tap water is desirable to stand for several hours. If you brew tea a second time with boiled water, it will not taste good. The teapot, preferably porcelain, is rinsed with boiling water, pouring tea, pour 2/3 of boiling water, close the lid. Black tea is insisted for 3-5 minutes, green - 5-8 minutes, then the kettle is added with boiling water. If foam is released during brewing, then the tea is brewed correctly. Foam should not be removed - such tea is the most fragrant. The best tea after the first infusion.

But before proceeding to brewing tea, we need to repeat the safety rules. On your tables are cards in which a set of words is given from one paragraph of the PTB. Sound these rules.

Well, well, the tables are set, tea is brewed, it's time to invite to the table. I have a tea cup in my hand. Let her be a symbol of an invitation to tea. Passing it from hand to hand, standing next door to the right, think, how would you now invite him to tea? What words will you find for this? After all, it is very important how the invitation sounds.

Presenter 1

Thank you all for your attention,
For the game, poetry and laughter.

Presenter 2.

We say: “Goodbye!”,
We are waiting for you all again.

Annex 1

Tea should be like a woman's kiss - strong, hot and sweet!

Where there is tea, there is paradise under the spruce.

Have a cup of tea - forget the longing.

And tea briefly satisfies hunger. (Japanese)

Tea is stronger if it is shared with a good friend.

Appendix 2

Tea

We drink it to the whole family,
At least every addiction.
But everyone is sure of one thing -
That tea gives us only happiness!

_____________________________________________________

"The kitchenette is simple and modest ..."

The kitchenette is simple and modest
sat somehow in the evening.
We drank tea until dark night
and talked about nothing.

Time flew by the May wind
and easy, quiet conversation
then subsided in the cherished smoke,
it didn’t raise a loud argument.

Appendix 3

Question:   Why, when you stir the tea, the tea leaves gather in the center of the formed funnel?

Answer:   Need to make an amendment. When you stir the tea, you can see that the tea leaves on the bottom rotate at different distances from the wall of the glass, and even their predominant amount is closer to the wall than to the center of the glass. Particles move following a rapidly rotating spoon. But when you take out a spoon from tea, then the effect of collecting tea leaves in the center of the glass is observed, although the funnel in the middle of the glass already disappears. This effect is associated with an increase in the boundary layer on the walls of the glass after the spoon is removed.

The effect is as follows. Near the walls of the glass, due to friction about them, the water velocity is very small (directly on the wall, it is zero). The farther from the walls, the higher the rotation speed, and finally, when approaching the center, the speed decreases again (exactly in the center the rotation speed is zero). Thus, the centrifugal force and pressure gradient act on the tea leaves, which for particles moving close to the wall is directed from the wall to the center. Recall Bernoulli's principle: the higher the flow velocity, the lower the pressure; and since the speed increases in the direction from the wall, then the pressure gradient is directed from the wall. By the way, since near the center of the glass the speed is small and increases in the direction from the center, the pressure gradient and centrifugal force are directed from the center, and there are no tea leaves there either. So, there is a certain radius inside the glass, where the centrifugal force and the pressure gradient are aligned at a given moment in time with a gradual stop of rotation, and you can see that the tea leaves rotate along a ring whose radius decreases as the rotation stops. A decrease in the radius occurs precisely due to an increase in the boundary layer, which means that the drag of the liquid extends from the walls of the vessel to the center, so that the radius of the maximum speed gradually decreases. As a result, a radial flow arises in the liquid, directed from the walls inward, and accordingly, to fulfill the continuity of the flow, an upward flow appears (you can see how the teas tend to rise from the bottom of the glass during rotation). As a result, when the rotation stops, the tea leaves are heaped together in the center.

A task:

Once Mr. Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, after another business, drank tea. Holmes for several minutes, without blinking, looked at the glass, as if trying to make out something inaccessible to the eye of a mere mortal, and suddenly said:
“I bet Watson, you won’t guess how much sugar you can pour into a glass of tea full to the brim.” At the same time, note, you can not spill a drop from a glass. And how much do you think? Try to check your assumption. What did you observe? What happens to the density of tea in a glass? Does it increase, decrease, or remains unchanged? Dr. Watson asked Holmes to explain the illogical behavior of tea. Mr. Holmes was in difficulty, but still found an explanation. What would you say to Dr. Watson?

Answer:

Sugar dissolves and the mass is added, and the volume is added in small quantities, which do not lead to the pouring of tea. You can add sugar until it stops dissolving. The density is increasing.

Task

When the professor began to spoon sugar in coffee with a spoon, Mrs. M. said:
- The spoon is wet, so not all sugar is poured from it into a cup.
“I know,” said the professor, “but I also chat with a spoon when I put sugar for the last time.”
- Then you put more sugar than you wanted, because sugar sticks to the back of the spoon. Of course, I suggest that you didn’t want to put a little more than one spoonful of sugar.
- Yes, I want to put sugar exactly as many spoons as I put, and I manage to do it.
Question: How many spoons of sugar does the professor put?

Answer:

Professor puts 2 tablespoons of sugar.
Let X denote the amount of sugar adhering to one side of the spoon and suppose that X is the same for each side (otherwise the problem is unsolvable). And let the dry spoon volume be 1, then in the case of one spoon the sugar volume in the cup is 1 + X, two - (1-X) + (1 + X) \u003d 2 (EXACTLY TWO SPOONS), three - (1-X) + (1-X) + (1 + X) \u003d 3-X, four - 4-2X and in the general case n spoons - n- (n-2) X, and due to the unpredictability of X it is impossible to determine when the factor (n-2 ) X will be an integer. The correct answer is two spoons.

Time sent me a master of tea

And ordered him to cook,

I don’t know

How to cook damned tea.

Then he took a hand soon

All I poured into a pot

Pepper seasoning, onion

And dill spine.

My tea came out - an overeating,

And also for decoration

On top of the oil poured.

My master arrives

I took off his coat

And the master said to me:

"If you obey

And always do it

Then I’m on Sunday

I’ll give you five rubles. "

Five rubles - big money

You can walk on them,

And Anyuta is nonsense

I will be respected.

Suddenly my master was angry

He called me into the room

I grabbed my hair

And he dragged me, dragged me .....

I thought for a long time: "Why,

What could I not please? "

Finally I guessed -

I forgot to salt the tea

What does it mean by a person inviting you to a cup of tea for a visit? Obviously, he wants to drink tea and chat with you, but this may mean something else, up to sex - it all depends on the situation. How to invite to tea  person?

Welcome to a tea party

So traditionally tea is a meeting of close people  (not necessarily relatives, but also friends, parents with children, if we are talking about tea drinking in kindergarten, for example). This is something like a party, but here everything is cultural, civil - people drink tea with sweets and talk, share news and gossip.

Want to invite someone to tea? Then it's worth talking to old friends - they will appreciate your friendly gesture. It’s better to invite in person, although it can also be done via the Internet (in Skype, mail agent, on social networks). Meet the guests warmly, treat with tea, sandwiches, sweets. Cake, delicacies, hot dishes and alcohol are superfluous here, you can not prepare thoroughly for tea drinking.

Tea with colleagues

Inviting your colleagues to tea, that is, work colleagues, usually implies short-term gatherings in the cafeteria of the enterprise or the nearest cafe (while the lunch break lasts). In this case invitations should only be verbal. But you will not write to a colleague sitting at the next table that five minutes later the lunch break will begin, and you want to invite him to the cupboard to drink tea together, when you can just tell him about it.

By the way if you are planning a business meeting with sponsors or someone else, you can set it up in a cafe - a calm atmosphere may well serve you, because business partners are sure to relax and be more accommodating.

Whole family invitation

Do you want to invite a couple to tea  (with a child or not, it doesn’t matter))? An invitation is also best done in person, and if possible immediately to both spouses. The second option - by phone or online, if you know the relevant information  (page addresses, accounts, mailboxes or phone numbers).

Cover the table nicely limit yourself to a little sweet, you are going to talk first of all  and build your family relationships, and tea is like that, an excuse.

Types of honey
  The name of honey depends on the type of plants from which nectar is collected, for example, buckwheat, sunflower, sainfoin, melilot, linden, white acacia, heather, etc. Such honey is called monoflora. But honey may contain impurities of a different origin. Impurities in small quantities do not affect the quality of honey. Honey produced by bees from the nectar of various plants is called polyphloric. Of the polyphloric honey, the most common are field, forest and meadow.
  Acacia honey - mined in the Danube regions. Belongs to the best grades. Contains 40.35% fructose and 35.98% glucose. It has moderate antimicrobial and protistocidal properties.
Linden honey is the highest quality honey. Linden honey has the aroma of linden, sweet, pale yellow. Contains 39.27% \u200b\u200bfructose and 36.05% glucose. Lime honey has strong nutritional and healing properties. Linden honey has atnibacterial and antimicrobial properties. It has an expectorant, slightly laxative, cardio-strengthening effect.
  Peppermint honey - has a mint flavor, light yellow in color. Honey contains a large amount of vitamin C, mint honey has a choleretic, soothing, analgesic and antiseptic effect.
  Clover honey is colorless and almost transparent, has a weakly expressed aroma of clover flowers. Prevails in the families of gray mountain Caucasian bees.
  Raspberry honey - light golden color with an exceptionally pleasant aroma and taste; is in great demand as a remedy. Raspberry honey is harvested in many apiaries.
  Buckwheat honey - has a bright light brown color with a slightly reddish tint, has a strong pleasant aroma and good taste. Buckwheat honey contains up to 0.3% protein and significantly more iron than light honeys.
  Chestnut honey is dark in color with a faint aroma of chestnut flowers and a bitter taste. It has an antimicrobial effect against bacteria, with gastrointestinal and renal diseases.
  Heather honey is a reddish-brown color, has a strong specific aroma and a slightly astringent taste. Heather honey is the richest in protein and mineral salts. By taste, it is classified as a lower grade honey.
  Honey in combs is much more useful than evacuated honey, since the natural wax of which the combs are made has healing properties in itself. And in combination with honey, all these valuable qualities are manifested even more. Such honey should be eaten in small pieces, chewing honeycombs for a long time and thoroughly (like chewing gum).

And what honey do you like?
  Last year, a daughter from the south brought chestnut honey (specific to the taste ... ate, but I don’t want to)
  I love lime, and as we have beekeepers called meadow ...

A story worthy of a movie. One friend complains somehow. She invited her man for the first time to visit for tea. But what happened next confused both. She does not even know what to do in that case. In general, he comes into the house, undresses, she puts down a teapot and puts tea bags in a mug. He snorted in displeasure - "How can I drink this? It's not tea, but sawdust." Silence. In general, the day as they say did not ask. I drank coffee.

The next day she comes back for tea, but the girl has already prepared. I cut several bags and poured tea into a teapot. And then he liked everything, said that it was the taste of real tea. Like, real tea is brewed, and not the one in some bags. Everyone was in a good mood that day.

Why am I doing this? To avoid such misunderstandings, it is better to immediately take leaf tea for brewing. I found a huge selection of tea in and now I will show that I found interesting. I went to the mountains with tea, had tea at home and took to work in a thermos. In general, a tea test drive.

Black tea with thyme

This is not only a celebration of taste, but also a very healthy drink! Harmony of rich black tea and light, soft aroma of thyme, giving the drink a truly unique taste. Traditionally used in the south of Russia and in Europe. It tones, is considered very useful: it softens the manifestations of the common cold, restores a weakened body, and relieves pain. invigorates, gives strength, restores inner harmony.

Krasnodar black tea with linden

To brew correctly. Just pour boiling water will not go. Each tea has the recommended brewing temperature on the packaging.

Now I have a thermometer in a stylish case made of natural wood.

Made specifically for measuring water temperature when brewing tea.

Now you know a little more about tea than before.
