Tai Chi Green Tea is made using only the youngest leaves of the tea plant and harvested only once a year in early spring. This commitment to high quality produces a tea unlike any before: the edible tea plant. You can steep in cold water overnight, hot water, or simply nibble on the raw leaves. The tea is rich in caffeine, amino-acids, tannins, and antioxidants and may help prevent & fight cancer, lose weight, fight diabetes, reduce blood pressure, reduce arthritic pain and detoxify the body.
