tea for two

Tea has always been thought of as a healthy alternative to drinks like coffee, but in recent years, people actually looked into how healthy tea is, and you may be surprised at how good drinking tea is for you! Tea is loaded with antioxidants (which counteract the harmful effects of free radicals) and green tea contains something called “catechins”, which are more powerful than certain vitamins! Antioxidants can also help your cholesterol. Studies are now being done that show green tea may have an effect on certain cancers as well.

As for me, I’ve tried lots of different styles and kinds of tea. Last year for my birthday, some friends and I went to a local tea house where we sampled raspberry tea, blueberry tea, and even a a tea with a chocolate flavor! I’m not sure if any of it was organic, but that’s something I’d like to try. Drinking organic tea can be an added benefit as well, since it won’t contain any traces of pesticides or fertilizers. Since the tea is all natural, you may even think that it has a richer taste than non organic tea as well. If you’d like to try organic tea, you can find it online. Be sure to look for a label of certification to make sure what you’re buying is truly organic tea.
