Headline Natural Herb Teas that are Good for You and the Environment
Description : The practice of drinking Green Tea (Camellia sinensis) was brought to Japan by monks returning from their studies at the great Zen monasteries of 12th century China. Rich in polyphenols and bioflavonoids, Green Tea is the second-most consumed beverage in the world. Recent research suggests that the antioxidants found in Green Tea can help protect the body's cells from the harmful effects of "free radicals." By adding Citrus peel extracts, Rose Hips and Acerola to this blended tea, it becomes a potent health- promoting antioxidant beverage and rich source of
Vitamin C.
The Chinese believe that Green Tea is cooling (Yin) by nature. The extracts and flavors that have been added have a warming (Yang) nature. Together, the blend harmonizes the Yin and Yang and brings about the balance of western and oriental traditions.
Directions: The best way to make a good cup of tea is by the infusion method. Place one tea bag in a cup and no more than 6 oz. of boiling water. Let steep for 3 minutes. Press the bag before removing to enhance the flavor.
Add honey to sweeten.
