" Firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea ", as one of the seven things to open the door, tea is an indispensable thing in people's lives. Since ancient times, we Chinese have had the custom of drinking tea.
For ordinary people, this cup of hot drink exudes a fragrance adds some interest to ordinary life. Nowadays, every household has tea, especially those who love to drink tea, and the family has a bunch of tea.
A few days ago, I saw a tea friend asking, "There are many teas in that have expired, but they have not been opened yet. Can you still drink them?"
Tea expires very often. Sometimes there is too much tea stored and it cannot be finished for a while, and it expires without realizing it. It’s a pity to throw it away. If you don’t throw it away, you’re afraid of drinking it. It’s really a worry that many tea friends are hurt.
Today I will explain the shelf life of tea to you at one time. I suggest you understand it, especially those who like to drink tea. If you understand it, you will not suffer any loss, so as not to waste good tea.
► Can you still drink tea when it expires?
The shelf life of tea, which is its "best drinking period", during which the tea tastes the best.
, expired tea will gradually fade and taste will become worse. Even if it is not opened, the quality will decrease and it will not have drinking value. , so it is not recommended to drink .
However, some tea friends are frugal and are reluctant to throw away expired tea leaves. If you have to drink it, then drink it; but you need to be careful that once the tea leaves become moldy and spoiled, you must not drink it anymore, so as not to drink mold into the body and damage the body.
► How long are the shelf life of different teas?
Currently, domestic tea is roughly divided into six categories. Each type of tea has different production processes, so the shelf life is also different.
Take green tea and yellow tea as an example. Because they both pay attention to "freshness", the shelf life is relatively short, basically around 18 months, so it is best to finish it as soon as possible.
. The fermented black tea and oolong tea should have a longer shelf life, about 2-3 years, but it should not be stored for a long time, otherwise the taste will be greatly reduced.
black tea and white tea are both teas that can be converted during storage. If stored properly, you can store it for 15-20 years. The tea will become more and more fragrant, and the aroma or taste will be further improved.
Seeing this, I believe everyone has a basic understanding of the shelf life of tea. In short, try to drink it within the shelf life of the tea so that you can drink good tea with strong aroma.
However, there are many tea leaves on the market now and the quality is uneven. Many tea lovers often buy inferior teas that are "renovated" with aged tea, which is difficult to drink and waste money. If you want to drink good tea but don’t know how to choose it, you can take a look at the teas that experts often drink. Among them, the ", one red and one green" is highly recognized, and they are all natural good teas that do not contain any added, which are delicious and cheap.
