别离鸩煎茶

[bié lí zhèn jiān chá]
'Parting Cup of Poisonous Tea' evokes strong imagery about bittersweet goodbyes. Using the term '鸩' (a legendary Chinese bird whose feathers were said to possess poisonous qualities), combined with making and sharing tea, usually a peaceful act, adds irony, depicting how farewells even under friendly circumstances sometimes leave feelings akin to tasting something toxic - difficult emotions following departures.
