Hi All,
I like green tea as it is great for health. Green tea helps in losing
weight and improve immune system. Green tea reduces tooth decay and
prevents from heart disease.

I like only green tea because it so much healthy for the body and so
much helpful to keep the body fit. I also take coffee some times but
mostly I take green tea.

How do you know? Especially when it comes from China where food contamination
issues are rampant. For all you know, green tea could turn out to be bad for
you.

The common wisdom about what is good for you and bad for you changes. When I
was a kid, cigarettes were good for you and helped you lose weight. Wine and
garlic were bad for you. Children were encouraged to drink milk and eat honey.
Now cigarettes cause cancer, red wine and garlic prevent cancer, and milk and
honey have too many bacteria for children.

Ignore all that medical advice. Drink it because it tastes good. If it does
not taste good, don't drink it.

I drink Yorkshire Tea which is a strong blend of tea. I add a small
amount of milk and sugar to it.I like homemade Lemon Ice Tea, the tea
made from Teh 2 Tang Jasmine Tea, sugar, honey, and lemon, put some ice
cube.

Japanese green tea. I'm too lazy to NOT use tea bags. And, I use the
same tea bag for several days as I feel the weaker tasting tea tastes
better to me over time. And, yes, I use the microwave for heating.

Of course, if my wife (Japanese) wishes to heat it up properly from the
leaves, I'm all too glad to drink it the traditional way. But,
otherwise, I'm fine with my lazy method (1.5 minutes) which is also the
cheapest method.

Yorkshire Gold and similar blends are mostly Uva-grown Ceylon teas, which
gives them that characteristic sharpness. If you like that, you might
want to consider some of the single-estate high-altitude Ceylon teas
which are higher grade versions of that.

Green Tea, especially china green tea. It has delicious flavors and
helps me lose some of my pounds as well. Vote for this!

Neal Stephenson's 2011 mega-novel Reamde - IMO, his best (or at least
most accessible) in some time - features the following crash of cultures:


"She had approached Zula and struck up a conversation yesterday
afternoon. [They] had found their way to a street where a number of tea
sellers had their shops, and Zula had been eyeing them, trying to decide
which one she would approach, psyching herself up for another round of
bargaining. And then suddenly this woman had been in front of her, blue
boots planted, smiling confidently, and striking up a conversation in
oddly colloquial English. And after a minute or two she had produced
this huge bolus of green tea, seemingly from nowhere, and told Zula a
story about it. How she and her people—Zula had forgotten the name of
the group, but Blue Boots wanted it understood that it was a separate
ethnicity—lived way up in the mountains of western Fujian. They had been
chased up there a zillion years ago and lived in forts on misty
mountaintops. Consequently, no one was upstream of them—the water ran
clean from the sky, there was no industrial runoff contaminating their
soil, and there never would be. Blue Boots had gone on to enumerate
several other virtues of the place and to explain how these superlative
qualities had been impregnated into the tea leaves at the molecular
level and could be transferred into the bodies, minds, and souls of
people condemned to live in not-so-blessed realms simply by drinking
vast quantities of said tea. A kilogram of the stuff would vanish in no
time and Zula would be begging for more. But it would be hard to buy
more in America. Speaking of which, Blue Boots was keen on finding a
Western Hemisphere distributor for this product, and Zula seemed like a
fine candidate…"


For those who enjoy a certain kind of gastronomic-obsessive writing, I
recommend as possibly canonical Stephenson's "Cap'n Crunch" passage from
Ch. 56 of the earlier Cryptonomicon. To understand this passage is to
understand the soul of the otaku. And for video fans, the
chadao-parodying "ramen master" play-within-a-play-within-a-play scene
from Tampopo, and Gorodish's diving gear-clad exquisition on zen in the
art of baguette-buttering from Diva. Latter two currently available on
YouTube.

Other such gems invited.
