Green tea is a popular and beloved beverage known for its distinct flavor, numerous health benefits, and rich cultural history. It is made from the leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant, the same plant that produces black tea and oolong tea. However, what sets green tea apart is its unique processing method.
To create green tea, freshly plucked tea leaves are carefully withered to reduce their moisture content. Then, they are rapidly heated to halt oxidation, which is the process responsible for turning tea leaves brown and altering their flavor. This preservation of the natural green color and fresh, grassy flavor is what gives green tea its name.
