4 Ways to Spice up your Green Tea

Green tea is renowned for its health benefits

  • It helps with weight loss,

  • Keeps your heart healthy and

  • A powerhouse of cancer-fighting antioxidants.

The antioxidants in green tea help protect your cardiovascular system while also assisting with weight management.

But let’s face it: No matter how healthy green tea is, drinking it the same way, day-in and day-out, can get boring.

So, to help you on your daily quest to boost health and burn calories, here are four delicious and fun recipes to spice up your green tea.

(Note: The following recipes can be made using either green teabags or matcha green tea powder, but if you want to maximize the health benefits of your green tea, I recommend that you use matcha powder.

Matcha is the highest quality green tea, as it is the whole tea leaf that is stone ground into a fine powder which dissolves in water to form a delicious, smooth, non-bitter, and, most importantly, antioxidant-rich green tea. There are some incredible matcha health benefits, as one cup of matcha contains 137 times the antioxidants of standard green teabags.

Green Tea Recipes

#1 Green Tea with Orange, Ginger & Honey:

This tea is beautiful, fragrant, immune-boosting and warming. If you have a sore throat I recommend adding more ginger and also using raw honey, which is packed with probiotics.

#2 Iced Maple, Lime, Mint & Apple Green Tea

This iced tea is refreshing, tangy and light. If made with matcha green tea, then it is also a natural energy booster. Matcha contains a small amount of caffeine and is a great source of the amino acid L-theanine. When combined, they can help boost your energy and focus for several hours!

#3 Coconut, Honey Matcha Green Tea Latte

Deliciously creamy and packed full of antioxidants, this is the perfect coffee replacement. The amino acids in matcha promote energy and concentration but won’t affect your sleep like coffee. For this recipe, you need to use matcha green tea powder.

#4 Fragrant Chai Green Tea Latte

So Many Ways to Use Green Tea …
