What’s ‘white tea’? White tea has incredible anti-bacterial and anti-viral properties, much more so that green tea. According to Milton Schiffenbauer, Ph.D., a microbiologist and professor in the Department of Biology at Pace University’s Dyson College of Arts & Science, green tea stimulates the immune system to fight disease, white tea destroys the organisms that cause disease. — intrigued, I found out what white teas are, and then searched for a decaf version. Found something better. According to Lauren, an ‘expert’ on the subject of tea for About.com, there’s a technique called ’second infusion’ which will remove 90 to 95% of the caffeine. Merely steep the tea for 45 seconds, discard the brew. Then brew again as normal.

Does a cup of white tea look like a cup of steamed milk?

Thanks Ari. I played around with it for a few minutes last night. The idea was to simplify the scheme and make it bold without bashing the eyes. I think the previous color scheme was a bit washed out looking, making it float on the screen. These new colors seem to give the page weight.
