About Tea & Marriage
We started Tea & Marriage to share with others a simple tradition that has stood the test of 12 years of marriage. Its origin is lost to history, but we have been ending our day with a pot of tea since the earliest days of our time together. It is not the only reason our marriage is a happy one, but it is a day-to-day ritual that ends each day on a pleasant note of Togetherness. If you follow our simple prescribed routine with religious devotion, you will be rewarded with a daily sliver of Balance in your busy life.
Tea & Marriage Philosophy
What does tea have to do with marriage?
Everything. And Nothing. Tea is the medium through which each day a sliver of time is carved from the busy world to spend with one's beloved. Each day, at the end of the day, brew a pot of tea and sip it with your loved one. This can be done while enjoying any shared activity: reading, watching television, snuggling. The drinking of tea with your adored should become an inviolable tradition, omitted only when an impossible distance of time or space intervenes.
A wise man said, "It does not matter so long as your loved one is with you."
How do I make tea?
Step 1: Boil water
Step 2. Pour over tea
[In truth, it is more complicated, but we are not tea snobs. Use a tea bag or use loose tea...we don't care. Just drink it together every day-even cheap tea that the tea police would frown upon. Just drink the tea.]
Really, how do I make tea?
Step 1: Boil water
Step 2. Allow the water to cool. The best temperature for brewing tea depends on the type of tea.
White Tea, 65-70 °C, 1-2 minutes
Green Tea, 75-80 °C, 1-2 minutes
Oolong Tea, 80-85 °C, 2-3 minutes
Black Tea, 99°C, 2-3 minutes
Will drinking tea bless us with a blissful marriage?
Quite possibly. Especially if you have married the right person.
What do I do after drinking tea?
Tell your partner that you love them. Brush your teeth. Go to bed. You may choose the order.
