What are some drinks that are a part of the Chinese New Year celebration?
I need to create a menu for my Foods class of typical Chinese New Year Food and all I cannot come up with is to drink tea section. Something else?
Many Chinese like to have the sweet dried Longannet + red date tea, which sweetness is symbolic of a good start for the new year. Just boil some dried red dates and dried Logan in water, add some sugar (preferably rock sugar). Adjust sweetness according to your taste.

Can anybody tell me what brand of tea (bags) had included a glass animals in the box? (From 1970)?
When I grew up in the 1970s, my aunt, who was Danish (originally from Denmark) used to order his tea (bags) in a box from Denmark if remember correctly (after all these years!) I had a whole collection of tiny glass animals, such as a turtle (for example) as my aunt used to send me these glass animals that came in each box of tea, she ordered. I had More than a dozen glass animals in my collection, but somehow missed 'em and / or broke' em through the years. I would luv to know the tea brand and / or company used to sell them. If you can find out, you're my hero! Thank you! 
I think it was the Red Rose tea. I remember the small ceramic critters too! Not sure if they still make one in each box anymore or not. Then again, BIZ laundry soap used to put towels in their boxes! Ahhh … the good old days.
