Tetrinkado eble startis en la regiono de [[Junano]], kie ĝi estis uzata por medicinaj celoj. Oni supozas ankaŭ, ke en [[Siĉuano]], "homoj ekbolis tefoliojn por konsumado en koncentrita likvaĵo sen aldono de aliaj folioj aŭ herboj, tiel uzante teon kiel amara sed stimula trinkaĵo, anstataŭ kiel medicina trinkaĵo."{{sfn|Heiss|Heiss|2007|pp=6–7}}
People in ancient East Asia ate tea for centuries, perhaps even [[jarmilo]]j, before ever consuming it as a beverage. They would nibble on the leaves raw, add them to [[soups]] or [[Leaf vegetable|greens]], or [[ferment]] them and chew them as [[betel]] is chewed.<ref>{{cite book |title=Tale of Tea: A Comprehensive History of Tea: From Prehistoric Times to the Present Day |author=George Van Driem |year=2019 |author-link1=George van Driem |publisher=BRILL |language=en |isbn=978-9004386259}}</ref>{{page needed|date=March 2022}}

Tea drinking may have begun in the region of [[Junano]], where it was used for medicinal purposes. It is also believed that in [[Siĉuano]], "people began to boil tea leaves for consumption into a concentrated liquid without the addition of other leaves or herbs, thereby using tea as a bitter yet stimulating drink, rather than as a medicinal concoction."{{sfn|Heiss|Heiss|2007|pp=6–7}}
 
Chinese legends attribute the invention of tea to the mythical [[Ŝennong]] (in central and northern China) in 2737 BC, although evidence suggests that tea drinking may have been introduced from the southwest of China (Sichuan/Yunnan area).<ref name="laura2">{{Citation| last = Yee| first = L.K.| title = Tea's Wonderful History| publisher = The Chinese Historical and Cultural Project| quote=year 1996–2012| url = http://www.chcp.org/tea.html| access-date = 17 June 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20020803115304/http://chcp.org/tea.html |archive-date=3 August 2002 }}</ref> The earliest written records of tea come from China.
