Gingerbread Green Tea Ingredients
Several ingredients found in our Gingerbread Flavoured Green Tea deserve recognition. Rose Petals, for example, were once used by Napoleon to treat musket wounds. Meanwhile, according to ancient Indian Ayurvedic medicine, Cardamom can balance the mind, body and soul. Then there is Star Anise, which has long been a staple of society and culture in India, China, Japan and Vietnam.
Finally, Green Tea derives from the Camellia sinensis (Tea) plant, the same place as Black, White and Oolong Tea. The difference between each type happens at the factory, whereby Green Tea undergoes only a minimal amount of processing.
This means that it retains much of its natural chemical structure and, when brewed, has a unique grassy flavour. But does Gingerbread Green Tea have caffeine?
Does Gingerbread Green Tea Have Caffeine?
Whether you need an early morning pick-me-up or a late evening boost, caffeine is the answer. It is a stimulating chemical compound found in at least sixty plants, including Camellia sinensis.
The specific amount of Gingerbread Green Tea caffeine content is about 30-mg per serving. Consider it, then, a gentle start to your day, enabling you to maintain concentration when you need it most.

Gingerbread Green Tea Weight Loss
One 2017 study found that Cinnamon activated thermogenesis, creating heat and promoting the burning of calories. Another study, conducted in 2006, demonstrated that participants lost 0.7% of fat mass and gained 1.1% of muscle mass after consuming Cinnamon daily over twelve weeks.
Similar conclusions have been drawn with Cardamom, which has been established to reduce waist circumference.

The peppercorns give it a warming kick but to me it doesn't taste like gingerbread at all. Very disappointed as I hoped it would taste similar to the Whittards Halloween tea.Review by Trusted Customer
