We all know that tea is beloved by people all over the world. Both black tea and green tea are made from the leaves of Camellia sinensis plant. The main difference between them is that black tea oxidized and green tea is not. To make black tea, the leaves are first rolled and then exposed to air to trigger the oxidation process. This reaction causes the leaves to turn dark brown and allows the flavors to heighten and intensify. Whereas, green tea is processed to prevent oxidation and thus much lighter in color than black tea.
