I admit it, green tea does not fall into the category of new and exiting beverages anymore, but it's still worth mentioning. It has proven to be very healthy. Actually, out of all known food and drinks, green tea has been reported to have the most health benefits. You can treat just about anything, from nausea, insomnia, headaches and even depression.Not to mention it has a taste that can't be beat.
You have to be careful when making green tea.
Producing the perfect cup of green tea is a tricky process. If not handled properly, the same parts that provide health benefits can ruin the flavor, making the tea taste bad. It's very important not to overbrew green tea.
To brew a perfect cup of tea, you don't need much:
- 1 liter water
- 25 ml green tea
- 5 ml honey
- 1 lemon
Boil the water and let it cool for five minutes. Pour half of the water over the green tea leaves into the pot. Let the first brew steep for about a minute, then pour it away.
Let the second brew steep for three minutes, then pour it through a filter into a thermos. Add a few drops of lemon juice, add the honey, and shake well.
