green tea

how can I improve the taste of my green tea so that it doesn't taste like hay but still keeps its beneficial properties...?

 

Ad a quantity of a good single malt ! ! ! Cheers, Tony.

 

I've tried all ways, including adding honey etc

best is let it get cold, then drink as fast as you can ... the bitter taste will stay in your mouth for a while, but you get used to it ... I have one cup a day, and its like having medicine ... and also, donnt make a full cup .... make a 1/4 with one teabag and let the bag lay in for long, then squeeze the bag

there are different types .... I use Sencha ...

some controversy as regards green tea, as Fukushima nuclear power station is still leaking radiation into the ground water supply in Japan, and some say this is/will contaminate many crops of different foodstuff (including green tea)

 

eat it along with something sweet like the Japanese do

 

Tetley lemon green tea tastes really nice.

Its a bit of an acquired taste, but can be nice and refreshing.

First thing I'd say, is that there are many different blends of green tea. Try a number of different brands before you write it off.

Other than that, lemon juice?

Or you could make Morrocon mint tea. Basically make a pot of green tea, but put plenty of fresh mint in the pot before you add the hot water. Then loads of sugar or honey. Leave it to brew until it is just luke warm. Its lovely. The large quantity of sugar might affect the beneficial qualities though.

 

Twinning's sell it as Green tea & mint, like Clueless said.

 

As has been said - the Green tea with mint .... then add some extra mint.

 

I bought 18 teabags on Ebay for £1, to see what all the fuss is about

 

I worked in the East a few years ago, Green Tea was always on offer, but to be honest we would mostly drink the local (Indian?? tea) with 'condensed milk' (anyone remember that?) - but still one could always have a Gin-Sundowner at 7 o'clock to compensate !

a-a (hic !!)
