  honey goes really well with it, and it's good for you too:)

  There are a couple of things:

  honey is one of them, but from what I have heard, it doesn't drown out the taste enough.

  There are fruit flavored green tea's out on the market that seem to be a bit more flavorful and drown out the GT taste.

  Another suggestion would be to look into the pill version. They have a supplement pill that contains green tea so you can just swallow it and then you don't taste anything. Absolutely beautiful. Then you can concentrate on trying out other healthful teas with flavors you like better.

  Good luck!

  well green tea normally tastes wonderful so you must be making it wrong the most common thing to make green tea taste bad is over heating it which cook the leaves, releasing more tannins and making the tea bitter. follow these steps to try and make a better tea;
  1. Heat water in a kettle or pot to a temperature of 80° to 90° C, or between 140° - 185° F.
  2. Place 1 teaspoon of tea into an infusing device that has enough room for the leaves to expand.
  3. Pour your water over the tea leaves.
  4. Allow the tea 2-3 minutes to infuse.
  5. Remove your tea leaves, and enjoy your cup of Green tea

  if this does not work try adding splendor or a sugar supplement to make it taste more sweet or you could simply dilute it but then you would have to drink more.
  hope this helped.
