" To brew up a batch of good health, try this! Green tea is touted for its antioxidants and ability to boost metabolism, but not everybody likes the flavor of green tea straight. Here's a couple of quick ideas to add a lot of flavor to your green tea without a lot of calories. First, I'm just gonna brew up a cup of green tea for myself, and when I'm at home and like to add a lot of flavor, I'll add a slice of fresh ginger. You can add as big or as small of a slice as you want or a couple of slices. I've got my tea bag and my ginger slice in my cup. Then, I just add my boiling water and let it steep for a few minutes. If I want a really big ginger boost, I'll just leave the slice in while I'm drinking it. On a hot summer day, it's a great idea to make up a batch of iced tea. So, I've got a pitcher here with lime and lemon slices and just pour in my green tea. Very cool and refreshing! And finally, to add a lot of flavor to your green tea, you can add some fruit juice. I'm gonna use pomegranate juice which will really boost the antioxidants and give it a really beautiful color. Next time you want to brew up some green tea, try these quick ideas."

Well, this looks all the world like heavy cream in this pot here, but actually, in fact what it is, is 2% evaporated milk, chicken broth, and garlic.
