Green Tea Information

Green tea is different from other teas in the way it is manufactured.

It has been known for its medicinal values for several thousands of years. Because it is manufactured in a different way, it has antioxidant properties. These properties help cure several diseases in the human body.

“Green tea tastes best when it drunk plain, without sugar or milk.”

It is meant to be drunk that way. The best way to consume it today is to boil some water first. A tea bag of green tea can be dipped in the hot water for about two to three minutes. You can then remove the tea bag and drink the tea. To keep the tea warm, it can be poured into a cup that has been rinsed by hot water.

The water also has to be chosen well. If it is colored, you will lose the exact taste of the green tea.

When buying green tea, you can figure out the quality of the tea by the way it is packed. If the tea is packed in tea bags, the quality of the tea is much less than that of those in the form of tea balls. The tea balls are more expensive than the tea bags.

The tea balls have to be used with a strainer in the teapot. The storage of tea is also very important. Tea is dry, and it must be kept in a dry place. If the tea is kept in a moist place, it will tend to rot. Green tea must be kept in a dark place. The tea must also be consumed within six months. The flavor of the tea will fade after this time.

The content of the green tea must be checked while buying it. The best time to buy green tea is around May or June. This can then be stored in airtight containers, as this will give it a longer shelf life.

Green tea should be consumed at least six to 7 times a day. It can begin with one or two cups initially, if you are not comfortable.
