That is elegant indeed! [em19]

How nice would it be if people over here appreciated elegance a little more and if consequently we also had similar items and ambiences.

Re: Re: Elegant Chinese tea ceremony!

On an average, Mexican beers are nothing to brag about (in my opinion),  though there was one that due to good marketing enjoyed a lot of international fame. Here we have a local brew called "Indio" (meaning "Indian", like "native American"). By now it is the only national beer that doesn't give me a headache after only one small bottle, so the difference seems to be in the recipe. Too many chemical substances in the other brands, I guess.

The most typical and traditional Mexican drink is probably "orchata". It consists of ground rice (hand-ground in a mortar), cinnamon, vanilla and sugar, all dissolved in water and ice cubes added. Some people add a tiny trace of salt, to "open" the taste buds. It is said to contain many minerals and replenish electrolytes, so it is very much appreciated on hot, sunny days.

Re: Re: Elegant Chinese tea ceremony!

Hey, come on, guys! I have been in Mexico most of my adult life! I know this country better than Germany! - But when it comes to "beer culture", most of the times there isn't much culture left after a good number of beers... [em2]
