GREEN TEA ICE CREAM

I am a fan of tea leaves  as  an ingredient in cooking , tea has  an amazing list of health  benefits.
Green tea has catechin the tea’s bitter component that eliminates toxins caused by bacteria.
It can even prevent the bacteria that causes bad breathe .
Green tea is rich inVitamin E, which works as an antioxidant , it also aids digestion and rejuvenates the body .
This is the best way to rejuvenate after a heavy meal with or without alcohol.
