As most of you know, I'm diabetic. I have issues with my blood sugar levels, and so obviously sugar is not good for me. I really enjoy a nice cup of tea in the evenings, and I've tried to cut back on the sugar I put in it, but I can't go without, it just doesn't taste right to me. I have also heard that green tea is supposed to be very good healthwise. So I thought I'd kill two birds with one stone.
I bought some green tea. Every night since Sunday, I've had a cup of it. And since it's the first time I've ever tried green tea, I put no sugar in it. I don't know that I like it, but I don't dislike it. I hoping I can get used to the taste of it without sugar, that way it won't taste right with sugar, and I can cut back even more on the sugar intake. And, as an added bonus, I then get used to drinking the supposedly more healthy green tea.
Yeah, well so far so good. I am, however, notoriously picky with my palate, so we'll see how long this lasts.

I'm not diabtic but I'm a total sugar freak. Coffee takes at least three maybe four sugars.
I don't know what I'd do if I were ever diagnosed as diabetic. Probably just off and shoot myself.
I usually have two cups of green tea a day. It is a weird, almost unflavored taste (if that makes any sense) but I also like it without sugar or anything in it. I actually enjoy it now.
I've never had green tea, coffee is my drink of choice, black, no sugar.
I drink about a pot a day.
