Tea has always been an inherent part of life for us Indians. No guest is sent away without the mandatory cup of chai with some namkeen and gupshup. Never mind the other drinks, tea continues to perk us up both in the mornings and during the day. And with the amazing health benefits of tea now being known, it gives us one more reason to drink more tea and enjoy this fragrant brew. These days, you get so many varieties of tea including green tea and flavored teas. Tata Tetley is one of the well-known and favored tea brands in this country and globally. I especially love their green tea and breakfast tea.
Considering that Tetley Green Tea has an association with being a tea that promotes fitness and health, it was no surprise that they launched an exciting concept called The Transformation in association with Jossbox.com.

good luck to the contestents .. I think i will need to drink only green tea for a year to get back to THIN
hahaha Tussi great ho. Exercise and also drink tea. 🙂
good luck with the contest Rachna!!
Green tea and I are NOT friends! 😛
Somehow, I cant seem to cultivate a taste for it :-/
I am not participating, Pixie. I am doing well fitness wise on my own. 🙂 I don’t mind green tea though.
I had been taking Tetley green tea for a long time now. I prefer to add nothing, no milk, no sugar or honey, twice a day. Husband needs Leo coffee with milk in the morning and Tetley tea, just like mine in the evening! I can’t take anything else now. Took a full pack of tea bags to the US too and had it in the room itself in the mornings!
Sounds great. I drink green tea too but not that often.
I may sound condescending but most of the tea bags which say “green tea” are just tea dust. But I must say that I love my tea in its various avatars.
I love this idea of transformation…whether the contests win the prize or not, it is still a win-win situation for them.
Good luck to them.
Yep you are the original tea lover, Janu. 🙂 Exactly, great way to introduce people to fitness and health.
I love such activities, unlike dancing or house arrest. Very healthy and yes, we love tea in any form.
Yeah, sounds very interesting.
I LOVE tea, but I have yet to develop a taste for green tea. I am just lost when it comes to which brand to try. I will look up if this one is available.
Also, this show -Transformation, reminds me of the Biggest Loser in US, but I can relate to these people more.
Thanks for sharing, Rachna. 🙂
