Genmaicha means “brown rice tea” in Japanese. Legend has it that long ago, Buddhist monks combined the stems and leaves of green tea with the browned rice scraped from the bottom of their bowls to curb food wastage. The result was genmaicha, a nutty, earthy drink particularly popular with breakfast. Today, in place of rice scrapings, modern genmaicha is made from roasted brown rice in addition to green tea. It also boasts a rich aroma and is said to lower blood pressure.
