Do any of you drink tea? I've heard that drinking peppermint tea helps lower testosterone levels/promote estrogen levels or something like that. Does anyone know any other teas that might be good for achieving things like that?
No.156749
Just drink green tea and mix a little semen in it to promote estrogen levels. Make sure to mix the semen in while it's brewing, and not after!

I like to drink peppermint green tea, which is fairly estrogenic.
Green Tea with Soy Milk is also a thing.
There's also licorice, which is estrogenic, but I think it tastes too sweet in tea. It's fine if you mix it with chai, but if the chai has cardamom, that's no good, because that boosts testosterone.
Also avoid ginger and chamomile.
Hibiscus tea probably also boosts testosterone, because a related hibiscus variety does.

>Lastly, tea — unless one is drinking it in the Russian style — should be drunk without sugar. I know very well that I am in a minority here. But still, how can you call yourself a true tealover if you destroy the flavour of your tea by putting sugar in it? It would be equally reasonable to put in pepper or salt. Tea is meant to be bitter, just as beer is meant to be bitter. If you sweeten it, you are no longer tasting the tea, you are merely tasting the sugar; you could make a very similar drink by dissolving sugar in plain hot water. Some people would answer that they don't like tea in itself, that they only drink it in order to be warmed and stimulated, and they need sugar to take the taste away. To those misguided people I would say: Try drinking tea without sugar for, say, a fortnight and it is very unlikely that you will ever want to ruin your tea by sweetening it again.
