Found this on Eating Well. com.

1. Begin with 1 cup (8 ounces) of freshly brewed Salada Green tea.
(I'm sure any brand will work!)

2. In a large pot, combine tea with one 14-ounce can of chicken or vegetable broth, one 11.5-ounce can of tomato juice and one 14.5-ounce can of diced tomatoes.

3. Next, add in one large diced potato, two sliced carrots, two stalks of diced celery, one cup of fresh chopped green beans and one cup of corn.

4. Season with salt, pepper, and Creole seasoning (optional).

5. Bring the contents to a boil and simmer for 30 minutes, or until vegetables are tender.

6. Dish the soup into serving bowls and enjoy

    Interesting. I love vegetable soup and I love green tea. Not sure about the combination, but I'm willing to try it.

    ALSO, if you go to the website, they have other recipes using green tea; such as a green tea fruit smoothie and a green tea martini! :drinker:
