Tea Time

Happy Saturday!!

TEA

Tea. A famous beverage especially in Asian culture. It has been made to believe that regular consumption of tea offer health benefits. I personally feel that this is true. Many detox plans out there encourages one to drink plenty of tea, especially green tea.

Pink Rose Buds

I recently went to a Parkway Parade and bought a packet of pink rose buds from an aromatherapy/tea shop. They are located at basement 1 directly opposite Chamelon (sorry if i didnt get the spelling right). Its $11.70 for 30grams.

Benefits

1. Good for anti-depressant
2. Highly rejuvenating
3. Aid in perserving beauty and youth
4. Reduces cholesterol levels
5. Aid in hormonal imbalance
6. Rich in VITAMIN C & PRIMROSE OIL (two ingredients great for the skin)

Directions

Put 3-4 rose buds in a cup of boiling water and leave to infuse for about 10 minutes

Taste

It has a very light refreshing taste, it is also mildly sweet. Nothing too overpowering.

Verdict - 3 out of 5 lippies

I feel healthier when drinking the tea, but it might be all psychological. I have only been drinking it for the last two days so I dont think the effect can be seen straight away.

It taste good, it looks pretty and it is supposedly good for my well-being and my skin - I'll keep drinking it!!

I wouldnt mind visiting the shop again to purchase more teas. My friend told me that I could get these "special" teas at local supermarkets at a cheaper price, but I rather purchase from the shop. Although a little pricy, they seem to know what they are selling and their products seem authentic. Supermarket ones might not be as authentic.
