红茶


闲人基本上是个大而化之的人,对饮茶并没有特别的讲究,绿茶、花茶、红茶什么都喝的(只要不是磨磨叽叽的日本功夫茶就行)。茶包也好、茶叶也罢,形式对闲人来说不重要,一杯热腾腾的暖茶在手,带给人的心灵的熨贴和温暖才是我最看重的。

英国红茶(black tea)从英文字面上看很奇怪,并不是“红茶”而是“黑茶”,其原料基本都取于印度、锡兰,、尼泊尔,然后英国人根据自己的口味将这些茶拼配一下,形成了自己稳定风格的英国红茶系列茶。英国茶一般加牛奶,有时也加糖,但更多的是加上橙片、茉莉等制成所谓的公爵红茶(Duke's black tea)、茉莉红茶(black tea of jasmine)、果酱红茶(black tea of jam)、蜜蜂红茶(black tea of honey)等。

众所周知,英国菜不怎么样,但英国红茶及其茶文化在世界上是很受推崇的。茶是英国传统的大众化饮料,平均每10人中有8人饮茶。据信,英国人每天要喝1.65亿杯茶,每年全国消耗掉近20万吨的茶叶,占世界茶叶贸易总量的20%,为西方各国之冠,堪称“饮茶王国”。

泡英式红茶并不神秘,如果不考虑茶具、点心、鲜花、音乐等调节氛围和情调的东西,可以说是极其简单。下面的视频是一位17岁的英国中学生查理•麦克唐奈(Charlie McDonnell)在他自己家里录的,教人怎样弄英国茶,简单又有趣,一学就会。考虑到有些国内网友英文不是很好,闲人把查理的英文讲解逐句听写了出来,并译为中文。查理的英文解说口齿清晰,形式活泼,此篇也可作为英式英语爱好者学英式英语之用。

Hello,Welcome to another episode of how to be English,in today my name is charles and today I going to show you the ancient english art ,that is making a cup of tea.

大家好,欢迎到“怎样做英格兰人”的另一节,我的名字是查理,今天我要给你演示一个古老的英国艺术,那就是怎样弄一杯英国茶。

Firstly you need to get your tea making equipment,this consists of a kettle complete with water,a mug,a teaspoon, milk,I prefer semi-skimmed milk, sugar for those of you with a sweet tooth and least but not last, teabags.

首先你需要有泡茶的工具,包括装好水的烧水壶,茶杯,茶匙,牛奶,我更喜欢半脱脂奶,喜欢甜食的人可加糖,当然最重要的是要有茶包。

Now that you have all your equipment,we can get started. First take your kettle and fill it with water,then plug the kettle into the plug and boil the water. While the kettle is boiling,we can prepare the cup for teabaging.

现在你把所有东西都准备好了,我们可以开始了。首先把烧水壶装上水,插上插头烧水。在烧水的同时我们可以准备袋泡茶。

Take the mug, remove the spoon and inset one teabag into the mug,If you wish to have the sugar in your tea, inset the sugar at this point.I have a sweet tooth, so I prefer two sugars in my tea. Now the cup is ready for the water,so we will wait for the water to boil.

拿过来茶杯,把茶匙拿开,放进去一个茶袋。如果你想加糖那么这时就可放糖。我喜欢甜食,所以我放两块糖在我的茶中。现在茶杯准备好就等开水了。

It is ready,take the kettle with boiling water,and pour the water into the cup,then we stir,then you take the teabag and press it against the side of the cup and remove the eabag....remove,teabag.

水开了,拿过来水壶把开水倒入杯中,然后搅拌,并向茶杯边上按压茶袋,然后把茶袋拿走,扔掉。

Now the tea is ready for the milk,I like my tea quite milky. And once again stir the tea, you must stir the tea quite a lot to make sure the sugar is dissolved and the infusion of the tea leaves combined with the water. And now the tea is ready to drink. Ah,delicious.

Thank you for watching how to be english,see you next time.

现在可以放牛奶了,我喜欢茶中奶味浓点。再次搅拌茶,你必需多搅拌会儿以确保糖能溶解并与茶叶及水混合透。现在英国红茶可以饮用了,啊,真是美味呀。

感谢观看“怎样做英格兰人”,下次再见啦。
