Green Tea

EverydayCaffeine

Green tea is a minimally processed caffeinated beverage made from unoxidized leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant. Its production method preserves high levels of polyphenol antioxidants, particularly epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), while providing moderate caffeine content (20-45mg per cup) paired with L-theanine - an amino acid that promotes alertness without jitteriness. Traditionally brewed with water below boiling temperature to prevent bitterness, this pale golden infusion is valued both as a cultural staple in East Asian diets and a functional beverage supporting metabolic health.
