Every morning we like to begin our day with a cup of tea at breakfast time. We drink tea every day, but more that three hundred years ago most of the people in Europe did not know anything about tea. Some people had heard about tea, but very few of them knew what to do with it

The object is the origin and tea traditions of different countries. The subject can be drinking tea as one of the ways to lead healthy lifestyle and keep fit.

We can suppose the hypothesis that tea can save the world.

The aim of our research work is to study the history and demonstrate the main benefits of different teas for grown-ups and teenagers.

we have used following methods: theoretical analysis of the literature according to the theme of our work; surveying; observation; studying of home and foreign experience in tea drinking; questionnaire ; qualitative and quantitative analysis of the results; chemical experiment to find out how much caffeine is there in tea, too.

We hope that our work can have a certain practical significance because all information we have found can be used as additional material at our English lessons on the theme “Healthy Lifestyle” and ”Healthy Food”. This article can be also used by everybody who would like to learn more about tea.
