Mm.

Green and white teas are picked at an earlier time and not as treated as black is, and they do get bitter when overbrewed. Since I always add milk and sugar to black tea I don't worry about it but I try not to overbrew green or black.

I like some green tea but I'm that fond of matcha tea, the Japanese ceremonial type. I like basic green with jasmine or Genmaicha, which is green tea with toasted rice and the kind that is typically served with sushi where I live.

I find green tea also helps with an upset stomache. Most of the green and white teas I have are flavoured. I used to work at a Tim Horton's and one of the really common staff drinks that people made behind the counter was hot chocolate with a green tea bad in it. Don't recall trying it myself. I usually used a mint teabag.
