Does one really need a reason / occasion for having tea ? Not in my book. In my book, any time is tea time. Tea does, however, form a backdrop for many things in your life. Here are just some of them:
1. Celebration—cake and tea
2. Stress relief — to soothe frazzled nerves
3. Stimulation– to boost mental faculties during work or studying
4. Consideration– “offering tea and sympathy”
5. Socializing– “let’s meet over a cup of tea”
6. Business–‘ finalise the deal over a cup of tea”
7. Tradition — English afternoon tea, Japanese tea drinking ceremony.
But who needs a reason for tea?

I guess the same reasons can apply to coffee too.

Though I’m a coffee person, I think above reasons apply to coffee as well. Oh wait…except the Japanese tea drinking ceremony one coz you cannot mess with traditions.😁
Who needs reasons anyways? If you feel like having it, just pour a cup and have it!😉

Agree! I love tea and have it several times a day, hot or cold, depending on my mood. In fact, it may be time for some now! 🙂

Plus as a panacea for all ills! I’m more of a coffee person but always have a cup of tea (black, no milk) mid-afternoon. I also enjoy unsugared iced tea.

I don’t need a reason, either.
No. 4 reminded me of the Big Bang Theory and Sheldon. The lesson was that if there is someone who is upset, you should make them a cup of tea.

Sometimes a cup of tea and a sympathetic listener are all you need.
