We All Scream for Tea Ice Cream
Summer is here (unless you hang your hat in the southern hemisphere), and temperatures are soaring to the point where a liberal dose of ice cream may be called for. Whether it’s 110 degrees, like it has been in my corner of the world recently, or a little bit milder, it’s still a great time Continue reading

Boost Immune Function with Green Tea?
Oh, the many and varied wonders of tea. Not only does it taste good, but there are a boatload of studies that indicate that it probably is quite good for us. Which is great news, even for those of us who primarily drink it for the taste. The studies on tea and health keep on Continue reading

Going Genmaicha!
One of the best known Japanese green teas is actually a blend of tea and rice. Toasty tea taste goodness. From the first time I tasted it I was hooked and am now totally going Genmaicha! Well, maybe not totally. But I am drinking quite a bit of it these days. Legend has it that Continue reading

Japanese Teas Revisited
Recently, I revisited some teas from Japan that I had tried previously and had reacted to with less than a positive and enthusiastic manner. The results were a revelation.
