I drink iced green tea daily. My favorite is loose Japanese Sencha at http://www.tealaden.com. I use loose leaf tea and the Bodum iced tea jug that they sell to make my iced green tea.

yeh it is pretty healthy, there have been studies about it having a lot of estrogen or somehting, but overall its good for you. like most things, you should practice moderation.

I bet if parents started giving it to their kids early on, they probably wouldnt even notice the taste.

you got it. green tea should be made a mandatory to give to kids in schools. just like milk. it would be decaffeinated but it would be a goo idea. now to find a way to have kids get over the taste.

I’m gonna pick some up tomorrow, actually.

I agree though, homemade is usually much better…you know exactly what is in it…nothing “hides”

i don’t buy it in jugs. sorry if i confused ya. I buy the little tea bags at my local sam’s club in bulk. then i brew a gallons worth each day. afterwards i put it in the fridge and drink it throughout the day.

soy milk tastes like a richer, creamier milk. maybe like coffee mate coffee creamer.

I actually really like green tea, but had no idea that you could buy it in jugs. I will scope out my supermarket next trip.

What does soy milk tatse like. If you could compare it to something what would it be?

Great blog idea and cause you have going here Israel. green tea is a great drink. I drink it daily, well weekly mostly because I just like it but partly because of it’s health benefits.

as with all thing, i practice moderation. so i doubt that drinking a cup or less of soy a day will have an adverse affect on my “package” or brain mass. green tea is awesome.

What are your thoughts on soy milk and soy as a whole raising estrogen levels in the body?(testicle shrinkage) –also know to impair brain mass. Have any thoughts on these concerns?

green tea is god’s food, no doubt about that.

cold is the way for me. i couldnt drink it hot, so what i started doing a few months ago was brewing it and then putting it in the fridge each day. I did initially have to build a resistance/tolerance to it. there are days when i just say to myself ” why am i drinking this.” but its good for you. lol.

ooh i never thought to try green tea cold! i admire you for getting through a whole gallon, i still have trouble gagging down a cup, have to keep chanting to myself “it’s good for you!”
