"Seven Cups of Tea" is a traditional Chinese proverbial expression that symbolizes the journey of life, growth, and self-discovery! 


The Seven Cups of Tea are:

1. The Cup of Innocence (childhood)
2. The Cup of Sorrow (adolescence and self-discovery)
3. The Cup of Love (young adulthood and relationships)
4. The Cup of Struggle (adulthood and challenges)
5. The Cup of Wisdom (middle age and introspection)
6. The Cup of Sincerity (old age and self-awareness)
7. The Cup of Enlightenment (spiritual awakening and acceptance)

It represents the idea that, just as tea is savored and appreciated in small cups, one should cherish and reflect on each stage of life. 🐸🍵

I speak Chinese, but I don't think I've heard of this proverb or expression before :0 Could I ask where you heard about this? It sounds very interesting.

@RabidRaccoon When it comes to tea I prefer decaf.
