Masala Lemon Green Tea

Green tea is well known for its benefits around the world. It is extremely rich in anti-oxidants. Green tea is a health tonic known to Chinese for its medical benefits which they used to treat a headache, depression, and almost everything. Today scientists and researchers, both in Asia and West have come out with hard evidence to prove the health benefits of green tea. Green tea is well known for not only inhibiting cancer cells growth but also to kill them. Green tea can be helpful in the cure of many diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, high cholesterol levels, cardiovascular disease, infections, and impaired immune functions. So, let's quickly make a power packed green tea preparation.

Here, I'm going to present my own recipe for the green tea. I drink decaffeinated green tea because caffeine makes me sick. You can use the regular green tea if it suits you. I have been drinking green tea for almost 10 years now and it is my best beverage. I have always seen people drinking lemon/lime green tea and many other flavors, but I like to drink my own version.

In her book Green Tea: The Natural Secret for a Healthier Life, Nadine Taylor states that green tea has been used as a medicine in China for at least 4,000 years.
