I used to drink Lipton's Decaf Green Tea, until I learned about all the chemicals and pesticides that most tea brands contain.
I've learned it's not only the tea that is filled with chemicals, it's the tea bags too.
I started looking for a Decaf Green Tea that is organic. I discovered the Stash brand and contacted them via their website to inquire about the tea bags. They promptly responded and informed me that their tea bags are paper and do not contain the dangerous chemical (epichlorohydrin).
So they pass the healthier choice test, but what about the taste? I decided to give it a try and order this 100 count box from Amazon. WOW! This tea is so smooth! If it were alcohol it would be dangerous! Doesn't have the bitter taste that I found with Lipton.
I like to travel with tea bags so I can always have my healthier beverage choice on hand. Recently, on vacation I stayed at my niece's house. I made a gallon sized batch of this tea as iced tea. My niece and nephew-in-law tried it and they are hooked too! They had to know what brand it was so they could always have it on hand. Thanks to Amazon Prime I had their own box shipped to their address in two days.
Love this tea!!!
My iced tea recipe...
In a gallon pitcher, add 10 tea bags and fill with water (I use purified drinking water), then place in refrigerator. The longer the tea bags steep in the pitcher of water the stronger the taste.
If a 2 quart pitcher is used, then add 5 tea bags instead.
