This tea was inspired by a trip I took to Japan a few years ago. I was visiting a tea farm in the countryside and was introduced to sencha tea. I was immediately impressed by its delicate flavor and refreshing aroma. I started drinking sencha regularly and soon became a big fan. When I returned home, I started experimenting with different ways to make sencha tea. I tried adding different herbs and spices, and eventually came up with this recipe. This recipe is a blend of sencha, spearmint, and chamomile. The spearmint adds a refreshing burst of flavor, while the chamomile lends a delicate floral note and helps to promote relaxation. This tea is perfect for enjoying on a hot summer day or winding down before bed.
