Green tea aids digestion after a meal and some claim it helps the complexion as well. Green tea has no calories and is much lower in caffeine than coffee and slightly lower than black tea. But the real joy in drinking green tea is the actual experience of drinking it.

Drinking green tea should be a calming experience that brings peace to your soul, and calms your nerves while allowing you time to think, dream or simply enjoy the fragrance and taste of the tea.

The delicate fragrance of the tea should first be enjoyed by holding the cup under your nose and inhaling deeply. After a moment, the tea should be sipped lightly and rolled over the tongue while savoring the fragrance and taste. After the tea is swallowed there remains an aftertaste that should be enjoyed for its own unique flavor before taking your next sip of tea.
