🫖 Brewing The Perfect Cup of Lipton Organic Green Tea, 20 Tea Bags 28g
- Water temperature: 80°C (boil the kettle and let it rest for 90 seconds). Boiling water at 100°C destroys the delicate amino acids that give green tea its smooth, sweet character.
- Measure: One bag per 200ml of water (a standard mug). For loose leaf, use one heaped teaspoon.
- Steep: 2 to 3 minutes, any longer and the cup turns bitter. Remove the bag promptly; do not squeeze.
- Service: No milk and no sugar; the natural sweet-grassy notes need nothing else. A slice of lemon brightens the cup if you prefer.
- Cold brew: Drop one bag into 250ml of cold water in a glass jug and refrigerate for 4 to 8 hours. The cold method extracts the sweeter compounds preferentially and is the smoothest way to drink green tea on a hot day.
- Iced version: Brew double-strength (one bag in 100ml of 80°C water for 2 minutes), cool, pour over ice and dilute with cold water.
- Best with: sushi, sashimi, steamed rice dishes, dark chocolate, almond cake.
⚠️ Safety & Dietary Notes
Lipton Organic Green Tea, 20 Tea Bags 28g is a green tea with around 25-35mg of caffeine per cup; safety points below cover the EGCG and L-theanine profile and the iron-absorption note for meal-time drinkers.
- ✅ Dietary Status: Suitable for vegans, vegetarians and gluten-free diets. Sugar free and calorie free.
- ⚠️ Caffeine: Contains caffeine; expect roughly 25 to 35mg per cup, around half a regular black tea and a third of a filter coffee. Pairs with L-theanine for a slower, smoother lift.
- ⚠️ Allergens: No declared major allergens. May reduce iron absorption if drunk with meals; leave 30 minutes between cup and meal if you are iron-deficient.
- 🌱 Nutrient Note: Rich in EGCG, the principal antioxidant in green tea; L-theanine smooths the caffeine effect and is the technical reason green tea feels less jittery than coffee.
- 🌍 Sustainability: Sourced from named gardens in China, Japan, Sri Lanka or India; bags are plant-based and home compostable where labelled.
- ✅ Shelf Life: See best-before date printed on the pack; product remains safe past that date but loses aromatic strength. Store somewhere cool, dry and away from direct sunlight in an airtight container.
