In Poland one person drinks on average nearly four or five cups of tea every day. There are a lot of various types of tea but in this essay I will concentrate on three of them: black tea, green tea and white tea.

Firstly, because of an almost colourless liquid and secondly, when the tea raises something that looks like silvery hair appears on its buds.

At last, I would like to add that a cup of white tea at night is a prefect way to end the day, and a one cup in the morning to begin the day.
