During the Mid-Autumn Festival, on the night of the full moon, every bite of mooncake carries the warmth of reunions. There's a saying, "On the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month, the moon is full in the sky, and mooncakes are round on the ground." While admiring the moon, savoring various flavors of mooncakes with family is indeed a delightful and heartwarming experience. However, why do we always hear about pairing mooncakes with tea? Inside mooncake gift boxes, we often find tea leaves included. Do you know why this is done?

中秋佳节,月圆之夜,每一口月饼都承载着团圆的温馨。俗话说,“八月十五,天上月圆,地下饼圆”,边赏月边和家人一起品尝多种口味的月饼,更是惬意美好。但是,为什么我们总是听到要搭配茶来品味月饼呢?在月饼礼盒里,我们都会配上茶叶,你知道为什么会这么做吗?

1- Symbol of Reunion 团圆的象征

The Mid-Autumn Festival, which originated in the early Tang Dynasty and flourished during the Song Dynasty, has become one of the most important traditional holidays today. Since the Tang Dynasty, there has been a custom of brewing "tuan cha" (tea balls) during this festival. The shape of "tuan cha" resembles a sphere, symbolizing reunion, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is a time for families to come together.

Therefore, drinking "tuan cha" during the Mid-Autumn Festival is the most suitable choice. As time went on, people began using loose tea leaves instead of "tuan cha", but the tradition of pairing tea with mooncakes has endured.

中秋节始于初唐,盛行于宋朝,延传至今,中秋已经成为非常重要的传统节日之一。自
唐朝以来,就有煮团茶的习俗,因为团茶的形状近似一个球,又可引申为团圆,而中秋正是一家人团圆的节日,中秋喝团茶最合适不过。到了后来,人们开始用散茶代替团茶,但茶配月饼的习惯还是保留了下来。

2- Healthy and Eliminate Greasiness 健康且解腻

Whether sweet or savory, although mooncakes are delicious, will always feel greasy if you eat too much, and they are also high in calories. Drinking tea not only helps eliminate this feeling of greasiness but also promote gastrointestinal peristalsis, aiding digestion and even offering potential weight loss benefits. It makes weight management a more relaxed and enjoyable process. Therefore, it is healthier to pair tea with mooncakes.

不论甜咸,月饼虽然美味,但吃多了总会觉得腻,而且热量都比较高。喝茶不仅解腻,还有助于刺激肠道蠕动,促进消化,更有減肥的功效。让您轻松减肥消脂!因此,茶与月饼搭配更健康。

3-  Emotional Connection 情感的联结

Express your feeling through tea, the taste of home. During every festive occasion, thoughts of loved ones multiply. In ancient times, eating mooncakes and savoring good tea created a bond between family and nostalgia. This connection was formed with each bite and sip. The bright moon seemed to carry the deep longing of travelers for their hometowns and loved ones. Even though they were miles apart, they felt connected under the same moon. Sitting in the courtyard, gazing at the moon, and enjoying a cup of tea, it's as if even memories carry a touch of longing.

以茶寄情,家的味道。每逢佳节倍思亲。在古代,吃月饼、品好茶,亲情与乡愁,就在这么一啄一饮之间。一轮明月,似乎带去了游子对故乡和亲人深深的思念,虽然身处千里之遥,却在这轮明月下彼此相连。而坐在院子里,赏一轮月,饮一杯茶,就连记忆都带着一种思念味道。


In fact, what you eat during the Mid-Autumn Festival is not as important as the time spent with your family.
其实,中秋节吃什么不重要,重要的是和家人在一起的时光。
