You know what? This old lady heard some folks talking ’bout Thai green tea the other day. Never heard of it before, sounded fancy. But then I got to thinking, tea is tea, right? But this one, they say it’s green. And it comes from a place called Thailand. Sounds far away.

They say this Thai green tea ain’t like the regular tea we drink. It’s, well, green! Not like the orange one. This green one, they say it comes from some kinda special leaves. They pick ’em before they get old or somethin’. And they don’t do somethin’ to ’em that they do to other tea leaves. Sounds complicated to me. But I guess that’s why it stays green. And they say it’s good for you, too! Keep you healthy, or somethin’ like that.

This Thai green tea, they call it “green iced tea” too. I guess they drink it cold over there. Don’t know why you’d want cold tea, but to each their own, I always say. They say it ain’t a real Thai drink, though. Not like the orange one, which they call “Thai tea” or somethin’. This Thai tea, it’s got a special color ’cause they put some dye in it, I reckon. This one, the orange one, it’s creamy. They put milk in it, that sweet milk that comes in a can.

• Thai green tea: They say it’s made from green tea leaves.
• Sometimes they put jasmine in it. Makes it smell good, I guess.
• They drink it cold, and sometimes with milk.
• Thai tea: They say it’s orange ’cause of food coloring.
• It’s creamy ’cause of that condensed milk.
• They drink it over ice, too.

Now, this Thai green tea, they say you can make it at home. Sounds like a lot of work to me, but I guess if you like it, you like it. You can put whatever you want in it, too. Make it just how you like it. Sweet, not sweet, whatever.

They say this green Thai tea is good for you. Like that other healthy tea everyone’s talkin about. It’s got them, uh, anti-oxidants. That’s what they call ’em. They’re supposed to be good for you. Keep your insides working right. Help you fight off the sickness. Keep your immune system, whatever that is, strong. Like I said, it is good for you, I guess.

This Thai tea, both the green and the orange kind, they say it’s got them anti-oxidants like other teas. Like that green tea they’re always talkin’ about. These anti-oxidants, they do somethin’ called anti-inflammatory. Don’t know what that means exactly, but it sounds important. Guess it helps with swelling or somethin’. It’s all about keepin’ you healthy, that’s what they tell me.

Heard some folks wonderin’ if this Thai tea is safe to drink. Well, I reckon it is, just like any other tea. Don’t go drinkin’ a whole pot of it, though. One or two cups a day, that’s probably enough. Too much of anythin’ ain’t good for you, that’s what my mama used to say. And she was right about most things. So, just be smart about it, you know?

This Thai green tea got a different taste, I hear. Some say it taste like grass. Some say it’s kinda sweet. I don’t know, never tried it. But people sure do seem to like it. They say it’s good for a hot day. Cool you down, I reckon.

Now, I ain’t no expert on this Thai green tea. Just tellin’ you what I heard. If you wanna know more, you gotta go ask them young folks. They know all about this kinda stuff. They got them computers and whatnot. They can find out anythin’ these days. Me, I just stick to my regular tea. But hey, if you wanna try this green stuff, go ahead. Might be good, who knows?

I heard some folks say this Thai green tea got caffeine in it. That’s what wakes you up, right? Like coffee. But they say it ain’t as much as coffee. So maybe it won’t keep you up all night. Still, if you’re sensitive to that kinda thing, best be careful.

They got different kinds of this Thai green tea, too. Different flavors and whatnot. Jasmine, like I said before. And other stuff, too. You gotta read the labels, I guess. See what you’re gettin’.

If you wanna make this green Thai tea at home, you gotta get the right leaves. Then you gotta boil water, pour it over the leaves, let it sit for a bit. Then you can add ice, milk, sugar, whatever you want. Sounds like a lot of trouble, but I guess it’s worth it if you like the taste. They say it is easy, but I don’t know.

They say that Thai Green Tea got health benefits same as other teas. So drinking tea is good I guess.

One or two cups a day is good. Too much is not good, make you feel not good.

This Thai green tea, it’s somethin’ different, that’s for sure. Maybe I’ll try it someday. Or maybe I won’t. We’ll see. But it’s always good to learn somethin’ new, even if you’re old like me. Keeps the mind workin’, you know?
