Healthiest Tea or Tisane - What's Your Opinion?

What do you think is the most beneficial or healthiest tea or tisane to drink?

I have a hard time picking my daily tea for health...

Silver Needle White Tea
Japanese Matcha
Green Rooibos

Hard for me to decide which would benefit me most because I believe those are the top 3 healthiest drinks in the world...

What's you opinion?

Answer:

Matt, I believe the best option is to diversify your healthy beverages. That way, you open yourself to new choices, and reduces the likelihood of side effects from drinking too much.

All three beverages have the pluses. Just bear in mind that within the same type of beverage, there is a wide variations of quality.

Some green tea will contain more antioxidants and theanine than Matcha green tea or Silver Needle white tea. But it may also cost more. It all depends.
