Help? Green Tea Drinkers...
Ok, I basically only drink coffee and soda everyday (I know it's HORRIBLE of me). So I've been trying to start drinking Green Tea. I hear it's good for you, and I'd like to give my body a break.
My only problem is...Green Tea tastes like grass and water! Seriously, I might as well be munching on my lawn.
So how do you make it taste better? I hear people add lemon and honey...but then wouldn't it just taste like a lemon, honey, and grass drink? lol.
Help! I want to like this stuff, but I'm soo not liking it right now!!!

Re: Help? Green Tea Drinkers...
I think lemon and honey really masks any other nasty taste. I suggest giving it a try lol

Re: Help? Green Tea Drinkers...
If you like peppermint... some brands (Lipton is one) makes Peppermint Green Tea... it definitely knocks down the "grass" taste haha and if you add some splenda or honey or sugar... you should be good to go

Re: Help? Green Tea Drinkers...
I drink it with splenda. I also drink oolong tea which is also great for you, and it helps you lose weight. It tastes much better than green tea.

Re: Help? Green Tea Drinkers...
try blends. lipton offers some really good. or you could go in a teastore (contrary to a popular opinion it's less expensive and the quality is better ; you can also use several times the same leaves ).

Re: Help? Green Tea Drinkers...
I think plain green tea tastes nasty too, so I buy tea packets that are green tea with lemon flavoring. They taste.. satisfactory.
