Green Tea - 16 oz

Green tea has been used in China for thousands of years. Chinese workers who drank the tea found that it eliminated their body fat, which was beneficial to their lifestyle. The workers began consuming oolong tea instead as it has less fat oxidizing ingredients. Green tea was often used for its health benefits, one piece of Chinese literature states, “Drinking genuine tea aids in quenching thirst and in digestion, checks phlegm, wards off sleepiness, stimulates renal activity, improves eyesight and mental prowess, dispels boredom and dissolves greasy food.”

Green tea eventually made its way to Japan. Green tea was quickly integrated into Japanese cultue, becoming the drink of their tea ceremonies. They also offered different variations on the tea leaves that are still used today such as powdered green tea, also called Matcha.
