The Chicago Tribune published an article on nine tea myths and the increased popularity of tea in America. Some we have discussed on this blog, such as the idea that only infusions made with the camellia sinesis plant are actually tea, and all others are herbal tisanes or infusions. Some of the myths address the debates about tea and health.
My favorite myth? Restaurants know how to serve tea. That one made me giggle a little bit.
Go on. Take a peek. See what you might need to unlearn.
Yes, I agree you should do your research before settling on a green tea. All teas are not the same. Green tea has a lot of research on all of its health benefits. The key is to choose a high quality green tea.
