bad idea.
apparently there was enough caffeine…or some sort of stimulant…in it to make a 6pack of energy drinks seem like tap water. it was 24-degreees F outside and i was sweating. i have a picture somewhere of shortly afterward in slovenia of me wearing just a t-shirt and pants with everyone else wearing giant parkas it was so cold.
You were served tea brewed gong fu style in a gaiwan. You should look into it, it’s a cheap and fun way to brew quality tea at home. -

IDK, it's kind of a unique taste, it's really good and you can find it in a fair number of sweets from China and Japan. You can get the Japanese variety sold as "an" or "anko" online for a few bucks.

in me brown cuntry we have something called chilles rellenos which is basically just a fried stuffed pepper with cheese. You can get ones that'll make your stomach bleed or you can get ones that barely have a kick. When you go to the market you can buy them either hot or not, and they're advertised as such. The ones that aren't hot, they over-water.
Since the production of capsaicin is a defense mechanism, the plant will slow production and focus on growing more peppers to spread its seed. This relationship with water and stress stretches to lots of plants. Like, if you want your fruit tree to grow more fruit when it's older, don't water it as much and be sure to chop off some branches. This stresses it out and makes it try to reproduce as hard as it can with bigger fruit. Want your san pedro to produce more mescaline? (another defense mechanism) Keep it in colder temperatures and leave it in the dark periodically.
I say this because there are definitely some mild sichuan peppers/sichuan dishes.
