Are the benefits of drinking green tea lessened at all by drinking it cold?
I guess I could ask the same question about coffee and black tea, but I'm specifically curious about green tea.

Is that to say cold brewing, or just chilling it afterwards? The latter will be the same product, just cold. The former however is a bit more interesting: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0023643807003581, specifically:
Cold water brewing is supposed to extract less caffeine as well. |

The best benefits are derived from consuming whole, pulverized tea leaf. The Japanese term for this is Matcha ("maht-chah"). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matcha My husband and I buy a good product off Amazon, paying close attention to the price per ounce. It's better priced than anything we've found in stores. You can add Matcha to pretty much anything you want, as beverage, nutritional addition, spice, etc. It's really up to your imagination & taste. Remember green tea also has caffeine so mind the proximity you consume it before bedtime. |
