Rare white tea enticing to health conscious Canadians

(NC)-Healthy hedonists and health conscious Canadians alike are looking for new and exciting beverages that taste great. While enjoyed in China for thousands of years, white tea is the latest tea sensation to become popular in Canada. White tea is a rare tea harvested as a bud during the spring, and is less processed than Oolong or black tea.

White tea is known for its delicate flavour and for flavonoids, which are known for their antioxidant activity. This good-tasting and good-for-you tea appeals to those looking for a cold and delicious beverage that is part of healthy eating.

The demand for white tea has soared recently as tea connoisseurs and lay drinkers are finding white tea varieties more delicate and sweet as compared to some black and green tea varieties.

Lipton has introduced an iced tea version, Lipton White Tea, with a subtle note of raspberry, making iced white tea widely available in Canada.
