Babao tea should be brewed in a special bowl. Because the cover is the sky, the plate is the ground, and the bowl is the human being, the cover bowl is also called the "three-talent bowl", and the eight-treasure tea is also called the three-bubble table or the cover bowl tea.
The most authentic ingredients of Babao tea are red dates, longan, medlar, rock sugar, fruit slices, walnuts, sesame seeds and raisins. These eight materials, together with scented tea, are authentic eight-treasure tea. Eight-treasure tea has a long history among the people and has the effect of health preservation.
Extended data;
Sichuan Babao tea is slightly different from Hui tea, mainly in the choice of ingredients. Usually add rock sugar first, then add Siraitia grosvenorii, then add American ginseng, licorice, medlar, red dates and raisins, and finally cover the ingredients with jasmine tea and put two chrysanthemums. The tea soup made this way is green.
When drinking, first gently poke the chrysanthemum floating on it with the tea cover, and then sip it gently. The first bite is a shallow taste, and it has a faint fragrance after swallowing.
