Tea Ritual

I don’t know if it if particularly effective or not, but I rinse my mouth with green tea in the morning before brushing. Then I wash my face with the same green tea brewed first thing in the morning. Then after brushing I drink one cup of tea and once in the evening. 

With whom do you drink your tea?

In the morning its my wife as the kids are busy sleeping. The evening its the whole family and not just tea but biscuits and sandwiches also. As for tea before dinner, its me alone and my thoughts:) I drink tea generally two times but three times when I am not working. 

Tea Addict?

I don’t know whether ?I am an addict or not but I will tell you my tea craze and you decide for yourself. I need tea in the morning (two cups)  then in the evening with a couple of biscuits and then before dinner. Am I an addict?:)  

Spicing it up!

I add a little chili powder to my drink. I make it exceptionally strong and then add a dab of chili powder. I like things extremely hot and spicy and remember you may not like this. But can anyone think of better stronger blends? I know chili powder sounds weird but each one has personal…

Blending it to meet your taste!

Which green tea blend is the best depends of personal preference. I mostly like my tea strong with a dash of lemon or mint in it. I usually brew my own tea instead of having the bottled stuff. http://www.livestrong.com/article/265252-what-is-the-best-green-tea/

Which green do you prefer?

Yeah! Green tea comes in many forms generally blended with one variety or other. For me its Morrocan Mint. The given article gives different types of green teas available and see whether any one fancies you. Whereas are there any other that you know of, so that I might consider trying it out:) http://www.streetdirectory.com/food_editorials/beverages/teas/tea_the_best_green_tea_blends.html

Too much?

I don’t give a damn about drinking too much green tea. If I feel like it I drink it. Mostly when I am knackered I drink up to more than 7 cups of green tea. Give me a caffeine boost:)

Know your consumption of green tea!

8 months back I used to consume 4 cups of green tea daily. Reason? I was too fat. With a lot of exercise and green tea playing its role effectively I got rid of most of my fat. Now I drink only 2 cups of green tea. And as far as recommended consumption is concerned…

Too much of anything is not always good!

2 to 3 cups is the standard consumption allowed for green tea. If you consume more green tea than it is not good as high levels of caffeine can cause problems starting from insomnia, hair loss and indigestion. Green tea taken sparingly is very good but equally harmful if taken in access.
