Tea is my favorite drink, a health one that is claimed to make one live longer. If I want to drink tea, I will put some loose green tea in a tea pot, add boiling water and serve it in a tea cup. Then a nice smell will arise, which makes me relax. The following are reasons why I like drinking tea.
First and foremost, scientific studies have shown that tea is beneficial to our health. Having two servings of vegetables can be compared to drinking five cups of tea a day. What’s more, if I want to drink tea, I can have a lot of choices. For example, the strong tea from Fujian province makes me fresh, while the lighter tea from Zhejiang province makes me healthy, especially in preventing cancer and fighting against virus. Last, there is no doubt that tea is the symbol of China. As a Chinese, I feel proud of it and willing to choose it as my daily drink.
Nowadays, tea may be not as popular as it used to be, but I believe it will spread around the world as long as China becomes strong enough.

Among drinks in the world with a variety of tastes, my favorite is Longjing tea, a type of green tea which has enjoyed a high reputation in China. Longjing tea, with a long history, is named after the Dragon Well in Longjing village which lies west of the famous West Lake.
Longjing is well known for its green color, delicate aroma, mellow taste and beautiful shape. When I drink Longjing tea, I will enjoy its aroma first, then appreciate the liquid color and the movements of the tea leaves in the boiling water, and finally taste the liquid. So when making tea, the glass cup is always my first choice, which enables me to watch the tender tea leaves and buds dancing slowly and elegantly. It’s a matter of course that having a cup of tea in the morning keeps me energetic all day.
Tea, as the traditional national drink, also teaches me a lot. For example, it helps me understand the philosophy of Chinese culture ---keeping a peaceful and patient heart. Like a linkage, drinking tea makes the heritage and development of culture closely associated.

Among all of the drinks we have, I prefer tea most. There are many kinds of teas, such as green tea, black tea, flower tea and so on. The function of each tea varies from one tea to another. Tea is now the most popular drink in the world except water, which is consumed around the world.
I like tea for several reasons. Above all, tea is good for our health. For example, green tea can effectively prevent us from suffering from cancers or other deadly diseases; black tea can cure people of stomachache. What’s more, according to the research, people who drink tea more often can live longer than those who don’t. Besides, tea has a very special smell which can give you a taste of fresh nature.
On the other hand, drinking too many soft drinks is bad for our health because they contain too much sugar. Too many energy drinks can cause a heart attack. Therefore, as far as I am concerned, tea is and will always be my favorite drink.

Nowadays, the type of drinks is so various that different people have their own choices. Some prefer soft drinks while others prefer energy drinks. However, I favor tea over other drinks.
Tea, originating in China, has long established itself as a global drink which is widely drunk in China, England and many other countries. The light tea is special to the Yangtze River regions while oolong tea is served in Fujian province. Tea is claimed to be effective for preventing deadly diseases such as heart disease, cancer and so on.
The reason why I love tea is when finishing a day of hard work, I feel refreshed after a cup of tea. It’s very fabulous to put loose tea in tea pots, add boiling water in it and see the leaves floating. Also I enjoy the time when drinking tea with friends and my family. More importantly, drinking tea is like a kind of custom in China, so we must protect and inherit it. For these major reasons mentioned above, I love tea best.

As a famous saying goes, “Food and drinks are the stuff of life.” Said to be intellect-provoking to some extent, milk is also notable for its charming taste, fabulous fragrance, and abundant nutrition, for which there is no substitute in my heart.
Speaking of the reason why I am obsessed with milk, so nutritious is it that protein contained in it appeals to fitness enthusiasts like me who dedicate themselves to building muscles without suffering from obesity.
Despite the merits of it, overindulging may lead to the consequence of taking in excessive calories, which deviates from the original purpose.
To sum up, as far as I am concerned, drinking a glass of milk, my favorite drink, can be compared to encountering a gorgeous goddess. I do guarantee that it will under no circumstances disappoint you. (135words)

As far as I know, tea, the global drink, is consumed around the world more than any other drink except water. It is widely believed that drinking tea regularly is a good habit to lose weight and keep fit. Of course, I like drinking tea best.
Tea is rich in nutrition and is to my taste. Chinese people usually put loose tea into teapots, add boiling water into teacups, and drink it before it becomes cold. Chinese people drinking tea dates back to many years ago.
I like drinking tea because it doesn’t contain chemicals to make it taste or look better. If I drink it after dinner, it will help me with digestion. There is only one point people need to be aware of: tea should not be drunk along with meals because it may interfere with the absorption of iron.
There are a variety of drinks in the world. No matter what kind of drinks we choose, we only choose what we like best!

Drinking tea is always my first choice when I am thirsty; I like drinking green tea very well. Originating in Fujian Province, the green tea has established itself as the most popular drink except water in China. When I drink it, I can feel the liquid running into my mouth sweet.
But as for me, the main reason why I like tea best is not only its good taste, but the great benefits it brings to my health as well. It can help my digestion after having a rich dinner and keeps my stomach working. Next, it can also keep me wide awake when it’s on a hot summer when people fall asleep easily and let me work efficiently. Therefore, when I do my homework, I always enjoy a cup of tea and that’s a special way for me to clear my mind, which makes it easy to devote myself to the work I am about to do.
All in all, drinking tea never fails to fascinate me and I will always choose to drink tea when I am thirsty.
