About Green Tea
While Papaya Guava and Mango Green Tea is a relatively ‘new’ invention, the potential for creating it dates back some 5,000 years. This is when, according to legend, an ancient Chinese Emperor named Shennong discovered Tea.
The story goes that in 2737 BCE, Shennong came to rest underneath an unknown tree with a cup of boiling water by his side. When he awoke, he found that leaves from the tree above had dropped into his drink. The Emperor, an avid herbalist, decided to try the infusion. To his surprise, he loved it! Without knowing it at the time, he had just drunk a cup of Green Tea.
Contrary to popular belief, Flavoured Tea is far from a new phenomenon. Indeed, the idea of such a beverage dates back almost as far as the discovery of Tea. People of the time used to add herbs, fruits and spices to these brews. Today, we add the ingredients for you!
