Ode to Tea

Today I'm going to pay tribute to my favorite beverage... TEA.
Did you know tea has antioxidants.
There are many types of teas:
Tea is traditionally classified based on the techniques with which it is produced and processed.[19]




White tea: Wilted and unoxidized

Yellow tea: Unwilted and unoxidized, but allowed to yellow

Green tea: Unwilted and unoxidized

Oolong: Wilted, bruised, and partially oxidized

Black tea: Wilted, sometimes crushed, and fully oxidized

Post-fermented tea: Green tea that has been allowed to ferment/compost



Lastly, here are my three favorite teas, in no particular order <3
