Kung fu teacups are generally selected according to the capacity of the pot, that is, a pot can hold several cups of tea soup with several kung fu teacups. Generally, a Kung Fu tea set is usually equipped with four, six or eight cups, but in the authentic Chaoshan Kung Fu tea, only three Kung Fu cups are equipped. This is mainly because the local people pay attention to "drinking for three people" and the tea tastes just three mouths, so the matching Kung Fu tea set 120 ml just fills three small cups. If there are many people, everyone will take turns drinking.
