Skin Cleanse

Green Tea with Lemon and Honey

Ten years ago, I asked my dermatologist, also dr to many of the models at the agency, what I should do for my skin to ensure it's health longterm.  Without hesitation, he said switch from coffee to green tea.  I was a coffee drinker.  We ordered it as an office for delivery with milk and sugar every morning.  I made the switch that day.  Ive learned since to really enjoy it with lemon and honey.  It took a long time to find one that was not bitter and that was truly healthy.  At Dtox, we use a fair trade,organic green tea that tastes delicious.  We also offer matcha which is the green tea leaves ground into a powder.  Matcha is said to be 10x more medicinal than green tea because you actually ingest the whole leaf instead of just the brew.  

Matcha Latte Recipe

1 TBS of matcha

1/4 cup of hot water

1-2 TBS of raw, local honey

8 ounces homemade or Dtox Almond Milk (keep it thick so it will froth; store bought usually won't froth)

Mix matcha, honey and hot water with a handheld frother.  Use the Nespresso frother to steam 8 oz of almond milk. Add it to your matcha mix.  Enjoy!

Green tea benefits are numerous.  Green tea does contain caffeine but much less than coffee.  We offer a step down in caffeine from coffee to our pu erh tea, still a bold caffeine.  This is actually a green tea that has been fermented and oxidized.  Drinks like a coffee.  Then, if you want,  you can make the switch to the lesser caffeine of matcha, and then to green tea without too much of a withdrawal headache.
