Beer flavored tea

Alcohol has always had a presence in my life growing up in Beijing. I vividly remember my grandpa drinking liquor around me and dipping his chopstick into his shot glass to give me a sample.  There's no drinking age in China so kids are exposed to alcohol at a very young age.  However, culturally, the Chinese drink as a way to enjoy a meal.   So it is not a big surprise to hear that there's not a drinking problem among Chinese youth. 
Pictured here is a popular new beverage that is a combination of beer and tea in a bottle designed to resemble a beer bottle.
