It very cold here and I need something hot to keep me going.. hot coffee could do the job but that would mean too much of a bad thing.. I mean I would get addicted to it once again.. so I tried green tea today.. Too much of a good thing.
I have had six cups of green tea for the day.. enough is enough.. I don't have to tell you about the goodness of green tea.. you know that already. But I will let you into a secret.
I use green tea as my beauty mask with white clay. It keeps my skin looking good,.supple and young .
Do you do this too?

@BACONSTRIPSXXX I have tried green tea in some flavors but I prefer plain green tea. I drink it more because I need to.. I try to enjoy it.

I know green tea is health drink . . but I prefer to drink a glass of lemon juice daily. It cleanses the liver and a good source of vitamin C.

@antonbunot I love drinking a glass of lemon water in the morning.. It really helps you along.. add green tea to your routine and you'll see more goodness come out of it.

I don't use any type of anything as a mask on my face, but people tell me my skin looks younger than it should.
I do like green tea though especially when trying to stay warm. Tonight I wanted a soda, but I also want to sleep, which I should be working toward right now. Rather than having the Coke that I wanted, I had a pop that is caffeine free just to be sure I can sleep when ready.

@MarshaMusselman I guess its okay to have one once in a while.. but the problem for me is one would lead to another.. I usually keep away.

@sofssu I rarely drink sodas any longer, but I was thirsty for one or two recently. I try to drink water all day long if possible, that's why I'm up all night getting rid of the fluids, lol.

Nope, and I bought green tea, but I do not really drink it. I should, I know, but it's such a pain to get it ready, even if I heat the water in the microwave.

@ElizabethWallace How do you make your green tea? Its the easiest thing to do as far as I am concerned. May be you brew it differently.

@ElizabethWallace I might add a bit of lemon rarely but no honey for me.. I am always doing some thing in the kitchen and the kettle is always full of hot water.. so I find it very easy to do this.

@sofssu First you have to heat the water, then steep the tea, then add a touch of organic honey to mask the taste, next cut a piece of lemon to squeeze in to cut the sweetness. After you drink it, you have to clean up the mess. 
Or, I can just pour water into a glass.

@kevinakash There is nothing wrong with too much green tea, but three cups would be more than enough.. I over did stuff that day because it was too cold and clammy.

I have two cups of coffee in the morning. The I do switch to mint green tea for the rest of the day. It has just enough caffeine for a gentle pick me up.
