Image
The tea knowledge is very vast. As many types of tea are there, their processing and production of each tea is different though it comes from the same plant camellia sinensis. My experience with tea is interesting , it started 8 years back when I was 23, and I first started to drink green tea. Before that I never liked tea, I only go with Horlicks, Bournvita ,and other health drinks. But green tea got into my taste buds, though for some people its a bitter taste , I like the way it tasted , may be because I started taking organic green tea, Moitree green tea from Assam, which is chemical free. As now its summer and we tend to take drinks with ice whenever we feel hot but something warm is also nice. To take green tea can make us feel more relaxed and refreshing during summer. To drink lots of fluids during summer is considered to be healthy so why not add green tea to this routine, it has a lot of health benefits than any other drinks.
