Chunmee green tea is the main ingredient in Christmas Pud, a green tea variety that is super-charged with health benefits.
What is Chunmee tea?
This centuries-old Chinese green tea has a bright flavour, light tangy sweetness, with a nice well-rounded flavour and aftertaste. Chunmee is Chinese for ‘Precious Eyebrows’, due to the shape the green tea leaves take on once hand rolled.
One of China’s favourite teas is Chunmee. Chunmee tea is made from the unprocessed, unfermented Camellia sinensis leaf, which is pan fried, rather than steamed. Because it comes from the same plant as black tea, Chunmee tea naturally does contain caffeine and should be consumed in moderation by those with a sensitivity to caffeine.
What are the benefits of Chunmee tea?
Chunmee tea really packs a punch when it comes to health benefits.
- Chunmee tea is rich in antioxidants, which may provide anti-cancer benefits.
- The vitamins and minerals contained within Chunmee tea can provide a considerable boost of energy.
- Chunmee tea is high in Vitamin C, good news for boosting your immune system.
- The properties in Chunmee tea have been found to speed up the body’s metabolism, thereby providing fat burning benefits.
- The catechins present in Chunmee tea can reduce the bacteria in our mouths, resulting in sweeter breath.
- The anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties in Chunmee tea may also help soothe skin conditions such as acne. It can be useful to apply cooled green tea directly to the skin for a short time (10-20 minutes) before rinsing the tea from the skin. Ensure you avoid contact with your eyes in case of irritation.
