Can be a good night time tea.

Green teas are also from the camellia sinensis bush just like black tea; however the leaves are not fermented. The leaves are roasted, rolled and then fired. Roasting kills off the enzymes responsible for oxidation and the heat makes the leaves soft and flexible ready for various shapes.
