csn.cancer.org/node/192731This is a real good article, and last week actually I was reading some studies done on Green Tea with lemon, and there's a lot to be said about drinking this.

And hair growth with green tea. And interesting about the white tea too. •In July 2005, a medical report in the J Natl Med Assoc, showed the results from a clinical study. Two groups of mice showing hair loss were studied. One group was given water and the other green tea for six months. Thirty-three percent of the mice in the group receiving green tea showed a significant amount of hair re-growth after six months compared to the other group who showed no hair growth. Drinking Tea for Health •It is unclear how much tea must be drunk by humans to stimulate new hair growth, but green tea has other health benefits as well. Drinking two to four cups a day can increase your body's immune system, clear your body of toxins and help stop or reverse hair loss. White tea, a new form made from the developing bud of the tea plant may contain even more anti-toxicants than green tea. Further research is being carried out into this new tea.

Hi Friskers,
Yummy, that peach tea mixed with the green tea sounds like the way to go!
I always do the iced tea in the summer with the green and regular Lipton tea bags, because "green tea" is sort of blah.
Now that it's chilly outside, I do the same with green tea and regular tea, I just don't add the ice.
But, now that you mention this peach tea, I'm excited to try it. Is that at the grocery store?
Thanks for the green tea tip of how to spruce it up. ;D

www.epicurious.com/recipes/drink/views/Sweet-Peach-Tea-240228Look at this "summer recipe for peach tea". It sounds like a good morgie drink too omitting all that sugar. Ginger and mint etc. You got me going with the thought of "peach tea", that sounds really yummy, and I'd never heard of that till you mentioned it. I'm glad you did.

Think Ive got it at Vons before I actually also add mint flavored chlorophil and stevia to the brew and although it doesnt sound very good its wonderful! I love mixing teas! Red rasberry is also good! I liked peppemint mixed with the green during the hotter months. Its easy to get creative there are so many flavored teas out there.....and honestly I dont care for green tea all by itself either

For me the choice is black tea (decaffeinated). Black tea hot or cold with fresh lemon and a bit of honey. Black tea has a great flavor all by itself. Cheap and tasty.
