Green teas, including flowering or blooming tea, are increasingly known as beverages that offer a lot of health benefits. They have properties that are known to cleanse the body of impurities that contribute to the causes of aging and even cancer. It also raises the metabolic rate and thus has the added benefit of assisting people lose weight.
Unbelievably, some nations have been slower to blooming tea accept the benefits of tea and instead have coffee as the beverage of choice. As we learn more about how our bodies work and the processes that make us well or sick, we have come to understand that tea can be very beneficial to the drinker. Where science meets marketing, there is an increasing volume of healthy tea-based drinks in countries that are not traditionally known as tea drinking nations.
As the popularity of this healthy beverage increases, so too does the range and number of tea-related goods to appease a growing market. Some of these new products are probably not as healthy as others but may still be a healthier alternative to some of the carbonated, sweetened non-tea based alternatives out there and certainly healthier than coffee.
When people do think of healthy tea they overwhelmingly tend to think of green tea but that is not to say that other types of tea are not also healthy. Recent research into black tea has shown that it too has a number of health benefits – something that will please those who prefer the fuller flavors that black tea has to offer.
Despite science, there are still many different ideas on what makes good tea. Often these ideas are based more on personal experience and childhood rituals (think of childhood tea parties) with no scientific support at all.
Styles of tea range from the black tea that is associated with Britain and India to the green teas of China and India. Other styles such as blooming teas are much more elaborate in preparation and presentation and give a flowery display that looks spectacular. Others are much less dramatic and are used for entirely practical purposes.
Blooming tea will generally use green tea because the mild flavors of green tea do not compete with the delicate flavors of the flowers tea. This also means that blooming tea not only tastes great and looks fantastic, but it is also a healthy option that can help you to feel great.
No matter what style, is such an integral part of life in many countries, and brings such a sense of comfort and familiarity for many people, that it is difficult to conceive of the standard cup of tea being usurped by a healthy alternative.
