Mandarin ducks, 鸳鸯 (yuān yāng), were thought to mate for life and are commonly used in Chinese symbolism to depict everlasting love and devotion. This current understanding drew from its original meaning for brotherly love found in poems from 3rd century China. Today, yuan yang is also used to describe a drink which is made from mixing coffee and tea together.
