Green tea has long won its place in the diet of lovers of a healthy lifestyle. Both black and green types of tea come from the same plant, the difference is in the methods of processing raw materials.
In the manufacture of green tea, the leaves are subjected to partial fermentation or conventional drying. This method preserves more useful substances and reflects the appearance of the product: green folded leaves, when brewed, give the drink a barely noticeable shade - from pale chamomile to straw yellow.
It is a mistake to assume that the light tone of a green drink indicates the absence of a fortress - green tea is strong. In addition, it contains more caffeine than black.
The recommended brewing temperature for green tea is between 61 and 87°C, depending on the quality and variety. The quality of green tea is determined by the size and integrity of the leaves.
