Hrrm...The elegant way to drink is to tilt only the cup.Alright, then.Let's start with some basics.*shuff*But when the distance from table to mouth is short, there's no need.*SHAKE*The tea cup should always be placed with the handle on the right.If you're left-handed, the other way around is fine.But if it's handed to you the wrong way around, you should rotate it clockwise...
and grip it the way Alice explained earlier. With one hand, of course!Holding the cup with both hands signals that your tea has gone cold, so you should avoid doing so....If you're standing like Sakuya or sitting at a low table, you should also lift the plate.Standing up, low table etc.Try not to raise your chin.*SHAKE*
