Japanese Tea Taste Test [Can you say Sokenbicha?]

Fooducate blog reader as great as tea lover Julia not long ago received a representation pack of a new Japanese tea brand called Sokenbicha (SO-can-BEE-cha). It comes in 5 flavors (based upon a holistic 5 elements speculation earth,wind, wood, water, as great as metal):

  • Revive, a crisp Oolong tea brew infused with pomegranate as great as raspberry notes, black tea as great as rose hips
  • Defend, a amiable Oolong tea brew with guava leaves as great as ginseng
  • Purify, an aromatic immature tea brew with chamomile as great as aloe
  • Shape, a bold barley tea brew with pink flowering plant notes, puer as great as immature teas
  • Skin, a full-bodied barley tea brew with cinnamon as great as ginger

OK, so which was a selling lingo. Below is Julias assessment:

  • Shape season is smells good, though when you drink it you dont think it has which most season except for a plastic-y aftertaste. Im astounded this is upon a full bodied finish of a scale. It is really amiable overall.
  • Purify season tastes a lot some-more similar to tea to me. Im astounded since a not supposed to be as full-bodied as Shape. you unequivocally similar to how it smells.
  • Skin tasted unequivocally good. you unequivocally liked a cinnamon flavor, as great as a ginger, too.
  • Defend is a a single you similar to a most so far. It has a milder season than Skin though still has a strong tea ambience which you unequivocally like.
  • Revive was my favorite season of all a teas. you similar to oolong as great as rosehip tea quite a bit, as great as this total them well. It was really aromatic as great as had a great balance of a tea ambience with singular flav! or.

Lets see how these teas fare nutritionally

What you need to know:

Tea is great when consumed though combined sugars. Brewing it during home is a cheapest approach to suffer tea, though for most people buying bottled tea is a some-more available solution. Unfortunately, most bottled teas have been full of sugars as great as colorings.

The Sokenbicha line is unsweetened. It has 0 calories as great as nothing artificial. Not bad considering a primogenitor association is Coca Cola

Here is a ingredient list for a Revive flavor:

Water, Brewed Tea as great as Botanical Extracts (Oolong Tea Leaves, Black Tea Leaves, Rose Petals, Rose Hips, as great as Ginseng), Natural Flavors, Citric Acid.

Water check!

Tea as great as extracts check!

No sugarine check!!!

But because a combined healthy flavors? Why a combined Citric Acid?

These 2 mixture would not be used in a home brew, after all.

Natural flavors combined to a brew equates to which a great ambience Julia was enjoying does not come completely from a tea as great as extracts though from a little one more flavorings which have been a Sokenbicha traffic secret. But why, if a listed mixture have been of high peculiarity as boasted in a selling information, would healthy cooking need to be added?

Citric acid is a healthy preservative which adds an acidic, or sour, ambience to beverages. It is found naturally in citrus fruits. Why is it used in a tea? Most likely to enlarge shelf life.

OK so a home brew might be a best, though if youre going to select bottled teas, Sokenbicha seems to be a great choice. No calories, no artificial sweeteners, 5 flavors to select from, as great as a really great story.

What to do during a supermarket:

If you want to save money, buy tea leaves or bags for brewing. But if you similar to a preference of bottled tea, select a non-sweetened version. You! ll get u sed to a ambience after a few bottles.
