Tart Granny Green Apple Green Tea & Brew-In-Mug

I've been having a lot of trouble sleeping lately because of the chemo medication I'm on at the moment. I had to do my shot late last night because I forgot to do it in the morning.

 It's 7:30 am right now, which means my 2 year old is awake and ready to go. So my choices are either get up, drink tea and start my day, or flip on the TV and lay down on the couch while she plays around in the living room.

One guess what I decided to do....

Tart Granny Green Apple green tea (page 9)

You're probably right.

I made a hot cup of tea as strong as I could get it and I thought that Tart Granny Green Apple green tea (page 9) was a good choice.

It's really yummy and the leaves have little chunks of dried apple right in it. The flavour is not overpowering and the aroma is perfect. I prefer my green and white teas without sugar, but if you like your tea a little bit sweeter, I'm sure adding a bit of sugar would make it delicious. It all depends on your preference of course.

Green tea has just enough caffeine in it to boost me right now (less than coffee and black tea, but more than white tea) and get my day off to a good start.

Sometimes I like to add a drop of apple juice to this tea to make the flavour even more powerful but not load up on the caffeine. I also like this tea iced. Mmm!

The method of brewing choice today was easy. I didn't feel like a whole pot of tea yet so I just used my Brew In Mug (pg. 13) because it is just so quick, easy and not messy at all. The less of a struggle right now the better.
