How is green tea typically consumed?

Green Tea is made by steeping unoxidized tea leaves, resulting in a light green or yellowish brew known for its mild, slightly bitter and grassy flavor profile. It originates from China and is widely consumed in India and globally as a healthful alternative to black tea and coffee.

The beverage is calorie-free to negligible calories per 100g serving, with virtually no fat or carbohydrates. It contains trace amounts of minerals such as potassium and calcium. Green Tea contains no vitamin B12 or vitamin D as it is plant-based and prepared without dairy.

It is typically served hot, with or without sweeteners, and may be enjoyed any time of day. The drink is vegan and contains no common allergens. The nutritional content varies slightly depending on brewing time and leaf quantity but remains very low in energy.

Green Tea is hydrating and can be included in a balanced diet. It is naturally free of fats, sugars, and sodium when consumed plain.
