Green Tea

[xlxBigSexyxlx]

Is there any downside to fixing say a gallon of it, then putting it in the fridge to drink it over time?

One of my friends said you need to drink it right away when its hot because when you put it in the fridge, it starts to loose its antioxidant power. or something along those lines.

Is this true? Am I gonna just have to make cup by cup day by day? Or can I make alot at once and spread it over time.

Coffee has 4 times more antioxidants than green tea.

i'm not sure what this guy is talkin about but me personally i love green tea. it cleans me out perfect. see i have a problem with honey buns and when i just get done eating a box or two i feel huge and fat. i drink green tea and it cleans me out. i've been doin this for years so from my experience i think that it doesn't work as well when it cold. so i would make it cup by cup and hot as hell.

put some lemon juice in it. it helps slow the break down of antioxidants. green tea is great my friend.

I have been using some green tea from a company called Tea Tech that you can mix readidly with cold or warm water. I prefer cold water and this stuff uses splenda to sweeten it and it tastes pretty good. It says it has like 8 times the number of antioxidants as regular green tea and has 100 EGCG per package.

So it would be okay to make like 5 days worth, put lemon and lime juice in it, and put it in fridge?

[novastepp]

i would, yes.

i thought i was the only person that loved green tea. it took my about two years of drinking it on and off to really enjoy it. it makes me feel so good, almost like a high. i drink it plain no sweetener, usually 3-5 tea bags per cup

Yeah I like to sub green tea instead of coffee sometimes when I get too used to drinking coffee and it looses it's kick. Green tea is great.

Coffee is not very good for you. I personally stay away from all types of Caffeine. I know some guys say it helps with energy and with cutting, but there are far, far better ways of doing that then by whipping your adrenals by taking Caffeine.

What brand green tea do ya ll drink? Lipton is my fav but expensive.

i buy bigelow from sams. it takes 5 bigelow to equal 3 of Lipton.

i drink the salada decaf for at night.

i tried uncle lees brand, but wasnt impressed.

[facile]

look at all of us, big muscle guys discussing TEA!! I am glad I am not the only one, I drink it everyday, I like the idea of cold prep with lemon, may use it if it ever warms up here!
