Hi all,

I've been adding green tea back into my routine and often have a cup or two early in the day then keep the rest in the fridge for later. Any ideas if there is a time limit on the benefits of the tea or should I start over with fresh later in the day?

Thanks!

Cynthia

I think I'd only make enough for a day or maybetwo at a time. I like to sometimes make a pot at night and let it steep and then in the AM, put it in the fridge and drink it throughout the day.

As long as it's refrigerated, I think you are fine.
I usually make a (large) pitcher every two days.

I make green iced tea. It keeps well. It is also a great anti-oxidant.

I always drink mine hot all thru out the day and 2 tea bags at a time for extra strong drink with its EGCG's. I buy the one wth the Purple Antioxidents by Salada at the grocery store then after drinking i squeeze the bags (never just discard) in my hands and rub all over my face, neck and arms for added skin protection from the Sun.......

Mahalo (thanks!) for the responses...

My favorite tea right now is an organic Japanese green tea, Tokujo Genmai Cha. I love the taste of the roasted brown rice.

Isn't this delightful?! I got some on my last trip to Kyoto.

I used to drink a lot of green tea until my dentist told me that drinking a lot of it can erode the enamel on your teeth. I still have it every once in awhile though, especially green iced tea in the summer. There are a lot of other ways to get the beneficial antioxidants- right now I like the new Aquafina Alive with antioxidants. Helps me stay hydrated too

If you're drinking water out of a plastic bottle you'll need more than antioxidents to keep from getting cancer.
