Green tea, loose leaf

Energy: ~0 kcal / 100 ml (as brewed, unsweetened) (planning figure — the product label is the final reference)

Shelf life: More delicate than black tea — best within about 6–12 months; fades faster once opened.

Storage: Airtight and opaque, cool, dry, away from light and odours.

• Hot green tea service
• Base for iced green tea and citrus-mint coolers
• Pairs with fresh mint — pressed gently, never shredded

Water at ~80°C, never boiling — boiling water scorches green tea bitter; short steeps, and good leaf takes a second infusion.

Lighter in caffeine than black tea in a typical cup, but not caffeine-free — it still counts toward the daily total.
