I had received some loose-leaf green tea from a friend who recently visited China and was wondering if it is normal to see white foam on top of my brewed tea.

Could there be pesticide residues on my tea? I try to drink organic tea as much as possible, but don’t want to throw away the tea which was a gift.

All honest answers appreciated. Thanks!

There is this product here in the Philippines called C2. And I like it so much that I want to buy it everyday, but my budget wont allow me to buy it everyday. It’s a green tea that’s like Nestea Ice tea except that this one is green tea. My brother bought green tea from China and I’ve been drinking it everytime I remember to drink it. What I’m asking is how to make it taste as sweet as Nestea and C2? I tried adding sugar to it but it doesn’t taste delicious nor a likable sweet taste. I want to drink green tea but in a way that I enjoy drinking it. Not a way that I force myself to drink it. Thanks for the suggestions! I’m really in need of them. Green tea has antioxidants that I need badly.
