("Let us be grateful to people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom." ~Marcel Proust. A little quote from me to you, the lovely readers and followers of this blog. Have a beautiful weekend! Photograph source, Tatielle.)
(Did you know green, white, black and oolong tea are all derived from the leaves of the Camellia sinensis evergreen shrub. The difference in antioxidant content occurs in how the tea leaves are processed after harvest. White tea retains the highest amount of antioxidants because it undergoes the least amount of processing. Green tea is processed more than white tea, but less than black tea and contains a level of antioxidants between white and black teas. Black tea contains the least amount of antioxidants because it goes through more processing. Red tea or Rooibos (pronounced “roy-boss”) tea isn’t actually from a tea plant at all. This caffeine-free “tisane” or herbal tea is derived from a flowering bush and also contains antioxidants. Tip source, Canadian Living Magazine.
