《喝茶時間 tea time》 is a zine published by The Thinking Tea in 2020.
How important is to keep an intimate relationship with your own thoughts?
You have your own “Tea Time,” which is the moment when you feel sleepy, stressed and forced to think or work properly. There is a “thinking tea room” in your mind that serves “tea time” for you.
This zine tells its story based on five menu items in the Thinking Tea Room: brunch store dreams, broken mirror, party, disco night and the thinking tea.
每個人都有自己的「喝茶時間」，就是那些疲倦模糊又需迫使自己思考的夜晚或是白天。而每個人心中都有一間思想茶店默默提供著喝茶時間。
菜單上的五種商品各說著不同的故事，有那些正在追逐夢想的記憶、照鏡子去感受自己千百種樣子的困惑、只想放空的那些蛋糕派對、在倉促的日子之間記住瞬間以及我所詮釋的喝茶時間。
希望讀了這本Zine的人都能找到自己的那間思想茶店，建立屬於自己的一份菜單，屬於自己的「喝茶時間」。

The Thinking Tea 思想茶
The Thinking Tea is a project founded by Ingrid Lu in Taipei, Taiwan since 2018. The project explores the ritual of drinking tea as part of the creative process. The Thinking Tea published its first zine 《喝茶時間 tea time》in 2020.
於2018年發想的概念與個人品牌。源自於疲倦模糊的夜晚，喝著母親泡的熱茶加牛奶，迫使自己思考完成工作的過程，成了喝茶時間。每個人都有屬於自己的喝茶時間，也就是那個也正在旋轉、最安全的思考空間⋯如何與自己的想法相處成了創作的重要環節。
