    creamer in green tea? interesting choice
    I don't really like green tea that much (too bitter), but it has some pretty amazing health benifits. I drink it every now and then, if to just warm me up in the winter. :smile:

    I used to hate the taste of green tea too. I started buying flavoured green teas and I can drink them no problem.

    I like green tea when it's brewed correctly. I always assume people who hate it have had burnt tannin filled crap tea.

    It's not my favorite but I like it if it's spiced.

    I drink tea constantly at work. My favorite for this year is salted caramel (Bigelow). Super yummy!

    Green tea leaves are younger and more "delicate" than those for black tea. Bitter green tea is often a result of too hot water.

    Make sure your water is NOT boiling and you will have a less bitter taste.

    Green iced tea with citrus & ginger .....yum

    I love tea and drink it often. Green, black, white, earl grey, jasmine, goji raspberry green tea, herbal, with and without creamer, with and without sugar, fruit teas, special blends, you name it I've probably tried it. I agree with you, awesome stuff!

    It's only bitter if your water is too hot and/or steep time too long. Steep for no more than three minutes at 185 degrees (max; temp can be lower).

    The Kirkland green tea is nice. It's green too. I recently learned to use water a little cooler than boiling.

    LOVE IT! I get the Organic Green Tea from Safeway (Superstore? One of those big grocery stores) or the health food store and I drink it every single day, sometimes 2 or 3 times a day. My fave! No sugar, no honey, no cream, nothing!
