For Herbal Tea:
Green teas are produced mainly in China and Japan. Chinese Buddhist monks brought tea to Japan in the 8th century. Buddhists drank tea for its health benefits, but also because they found its stimulating properties helpful for meditation.
Green tea has many health benefits. Drinking green tea appears to create a feeling of relaxation and calm. It may increase alertness, reduce fatigue, and improve concentration. Green tea aids digestion by stimulating the production of digestive juices, and it contains vital antioxidants that are claimed to reduce the incidence of some cancers. Green tea contains approximately 8–16 mg of caffeine per cup.
