Etiquette of serving tea to guests

Our country has always had the folk custom of "guests come to worship tea". In ancient times, Qi Shizu, Lu Yu and others advocated replacing wine with tea.

The most basic way to serve tea is to serve tea immediately when customers visit. Before serving tea, you should ask the guests about their preferences. A little treat, first dessert, then tea.

As the saying goes, wine is half a cup of tea. Pay attention when serving tea: tea should not be too full, and it is appropriate to be eight minutes full. The water temperature should not be too hot, so as not to burn the guests accidentally. At the same time, when there are more than two visitors, the tea served should be even and match the tea tray. Hold the bottom of the tea tray with your left hand and the edge of the tea tray with your right hand. If the snacks are placed in front of the guests, the cups should be placed on the right side of the snacks. When serving tea, when you should serve tea, you should give it to the guests with high positions in the order of position, and then give it to your colleagues in your company according to position.

When entertaining guests with coffee or black tea, the handle of the cup ear and teaspoon should face the guest's right. In addition, a packet of sugar and cream should be prepared for each guest and placed next to the cup (plate) for the convenience of the guests.
