I love drinking green tea, I drink it on a daily basis and have replaced my regular English teas with it.
I would definitely say it is an acquired taste, but there are so many different flavored green teas you can find. My personal favourite is peppermint green tea for the morning and jasmine infused for the evenings.

There are so many health benefits related to drinking green tea. Its such a simple way to improve your health. Evan by drinking one cup a day, you can see improvements in your health.

Green tea is made from un-oxidized leafs and goes through very little processing. It also contains a very high level of anti oxidants which can help fight of diseases. It can improve your heart and blood circulation, mental health and regulate your body temperature. Studies have also proven that it can reduce the symptoms of liver disorders.

A popular use for green tea is to aid weight loss. It boosts your metabolism, making burning calories faster and more effective. Green tea can also increase your energy levels meaning you can work out for longer.You can also use it as a detox to flush out bad toxins in your body, as well as suppressing appetite.

Drinking green tea after a meal can help breakdown food and decreasing feelings of bloating. It may also relieve troubles with constipation.
