Drinking Tea by Time of Day

Tea News · May 27, 2026

 Morning is suitable for drinking black tea:

After a night's sleep, the body is often in a relatively static state. Drinking black tea can promote blood circulation, dispel internal cold, and ensure sufficient blood supply to the brain.

Black tea is mild in nature. You can brew a cup after getting up in the morning and drink it after breakfast. You can also add an appropriate amount of milk. It should be noted that never drink tea on an empty stomach, because tea leaves contain caffeine. Drinking on an empty stomach may cause the intestines to absorb too much caffeine, resulting in adverse reactions such as palpitations and frequent urination. Over time, it can also affect the body's absorption of vitamin B.

Afternoon is suitable for drinking oolong tea or green tea:

Under normal circumstances, the liver fire is strong around noon. Drinking green tea or oolong tea at this time can alleviate this symptom.

Oolong tea (such as Tieguanyin) is cool in nature, enters the liver meridian, can clear liver and gallbladder heat, detoxify the liver, and is rich in vitamin E, which can resist aging; green tea enters the kidney meridian, promotes urination and removes turbidity, and makes urination smooth. In addition, green tea has a very high content of tea polyphenols, which has excellent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.

Evening is suitable for drinking dark tea:

After three meals, the body accumulates some greasy substances in the digestive system. If you drink a cup of dark tea after dinner, it helps to break down accumulated fat, warming the stomach and aiding digestion.

Dark tea is mild in nature and does not affect sleep. The first choice for dark tea is Yunnan Pu'er. However, some people may not accept the taste of Pu'er, so white tea can be used instead, such as Fujian Shoumei. Shoumei enters the lung meridian, has a mild tea nature, and does not affect sleep.
