Tea 1 article

Tea, in the strict botanical sense, is brewed from leaves of Camellia sinensis and includes green, black, oolong and white tea. Processing and oxidation create major differences in color, aroma and flavor, while naturally occurring caffeine remains a common feature across most true teas. It can be prepared hot, iced, loose-leaf or in tea bags and consumed plain or with milk, sugar or flavorings. Herbal infusions are commonly called tea in everyday language but are made from other plants and form a separate beverage type.
