Green & black tea combo
      Although I like green tea, I like black tea more. With all the great health data emerging about green tea, I wished to increase my consumption, but keep the black tea taste. What I often do is steep a simply loose green for 60-90 seconds, then add a pinch of jasmine green, and a good dose of blended loose black tea, and steep for another 20-30 seconds (depending on how fine the black is). This makes a delicious brew, that has all the health benefits of green, but with the punch of black.
