Green tea has its roots firmly in China, although it was being imported to Japan by the 9th century, and is today the only form of tea commercially produced in Japan. China is still the world’s main exporter of green tea leaves, and the benefits of green tea are enjoyed by people all around the world. Fresh, clean, and packed with positivity, Lipton Green Tea helps you make the most of every day.
Made from the same leaf as black tea, but picked younger for a fresher, lighter flavour, our classic green tea blend is a delicate balance of grassy notes and natural earthiness that makes for a hydrating mid-morning pick-me-up or delightful afternoon refresher.
Is Green Tea good for you?
Sure is! Lipton Green Tea benefits you in all sorts of ways:
Green tea contains caffeine and can fuel your focus
With about a third of the caffeine of coffee*, green tea puts just the right amount of pep in your step. Lipton Green Tea benefits those who want to feel fresh all day.
Green tea gives you the uplift you need to stay focused and embrace the day. For hundreds of years, Buddhist monks have enjoyed the benefits of green tea to help them maintain focus. Now, thousands of people all over the world are discovering how green tea can benefit their own focus.
Green tea may help to maintain a healthy weight
It’s easy to reach for a sugary drink when thirst strikes. Why not switch out your go-to beverage for a healthier option? Green tea packs all the freshness and all the taste, without all the sugar!
Unsweetened tea contains zero calories: choose 2 cups of green tea daily, with no added sugars, in place of sugar-sweetened beverages to help you to get healthier and stay in shape.
Flavonoids are a group of chemicals that help to give plants their bright colour. Did you know that a daily consumption of at least 400mg flavonoids may help maintain a healthy weight as part of a diet consistent with dietary guidelines? A cup of Lipton Pure Green Tea is rich in flavonoids - it contains appproximately 150mg per cup. That’s four times as many as a cup of fresh OJ!
Green tea can support your hydration
The human body is 60% water and needs around 2 litres of liquid goodness a day to work at its best. Water helps the body optimize organs, regulate temperature and flush waste. Green tea is 99.5% water and a delicious way to help you hydrate. Don’t let hydration be a chore: sit back, sip, enjoy!
Green tea is wonderfully versatile
One of the benefits of green tea is the many ways you can drink it! Our green tea blend is perfect for those moments when you need to re-energize and revive, and for when you need to recoup and restore.
Green tea can be enjoyed in any season
There’s no better accompaniment to a summer’s day than a cold drink, nor anything more comforting on a winter’s night than a warm one. From iced tea to piping hot green tea matcha lattes, our smooth green tea is perfect for all seasons.
* Green tea has 28mg of caffeine per cup, while brewed coffee has 95mg per cup
