My brother is a Real Leaf Green Tea addict.There's no denying it. He buys not just a small bottle, but a liter of this drink, almost every night! Yes, no kidding. One time I took some paparazzi shots of him drinking his current favorite drink.

Photobucket

The photos above and below show my brother drinking and holding on to Real Leaf Green Tea while tending his farm over at Farmville in the wonderful world of Facebook. He's drinking Real Leaf Green Tea because it's been his refreshing companion for months now especially when surfing the net at night.

To further establish my brother's fondness for Real Leaf Green Tea, I also took pictures of his growing Real Leaf bottle collection. He keeps them under the kitchen sink. I wonder what he plans to do with them.

We have this odd practice at home where my siblings and I speak in English every night to improve our command of the language. One time, while my brother was drinking Real Leaf Green Tea directly from the bottle, I initiated an impromptu English interview with him to know his thoughts about Real Leaf Green Tea. I was glad he obliged without questions and oblivious to my plan to include it to this blog later.

Here goes my one-on-one interview with my brother who is definitely a big fan of Real Leaf Green Tea:

Why Real Leaf Green Tea? You used to drink C* all the time...

Yeah, because I love the taste...ahm...it helps me sleep, too. There's something about the tea...ahm...that make, makes...my senses relaxed. You know, I'm an insomniac sometimes (laugh).

What's with the big bottle of Real Leaf Green Tea? Why not buy the 355 ml. one?

Because my sister Nyam and my father always ask for some. Sometimes even my big sister because he's kuripot...she's kuripot. Haha. At first, I don't want to give them because it's bitin to me, but you know I realized I'm not madamot...wait...I'm not selfish pala. Haha. I'm so good in English already. Are we done? I'm tired to answer you. It's a nosebleed. Haha.

Nope, we're not done yet. I still have a few more questions. Okay, I noticed that you seem to collect the empty bottles of Real Leaf Green Tea. Do you plan to save the earth or something?

Haha. Yeah I plan to save the earth or something. Haha. Joke. Actually, I just love to collect things for remembrance. Haha. I used to do the same with C*, remember? One day I'll make some money with them. I'll sell it to the magbobote, you know the junk shop worker! Haha.

Alright. That's a good idea. Just make sure you share the money with me. Moving on, which Real Leaf flavor do you like more, apple or lemon? And why?

I like lemon more because I like the sweet and sour taste...tastes...of citrus. Apple is good naman but I really like the lemon flavor. I'm not an apple lover like you, okay. Change me! Haha.

Do you know that Real Leaf GreenTtea is made from 100% whole grean tea leaves and that it's naturally packed with Theanine, an amino acid that's a good stress remedy?

Oh really. I didn't know that. Now I know. Haha. But yeah, I noticed that Real Leaf make...makes me calm when I'm tired and stressed-out from the office. It's because of the Theanine pala. Okay fine.

Would you like to...

Oooppps, let's stop. It's the end. I don't know what to say now. And it's harvest time already. My crops need me. It's Farmville time on Facebook, okay.

Uhm...okay. Thanks.

My brother and I still need more practice to be fluent English speakers but one thing's for sure, he enjoys Real Leaf Green Tea so much he won't mind shelling out some bucks every night just to have a liter full of happiness out of his much-loved tea drink.

So, I am the first commenter? It's all right, you know. Haha! (tono ni Danison)

Well, there's nothing more that I could say because your post explains everything about the benefits of drinking real leaf green tea. However, I prefer Honey Lychee flavor.

I can really imagine how the conversation went on. Your facial expressions, tones and laughters. I miss you two, my former roommates.

Magno Elento, Jr.  

Edel really deserves to win in this contest because she and her brother and folks genuinely love the taste of Real Leaf Green Tea. She can be a great endorser of this product because she knows by heart the benefits of drinking such an excellent product. Moreover, her looks and appeal will help in marketing the product even more... Want to know how charming she is? You should really see her in person... A beautiful person inside and out... And also a genuine lover of the Real Leaf Green Tea product. A real gem for such a precious drink...

This is my first time to hear about Real Leaf Green Tea, and this post really made me curious about this drink. I left the Philippines three years ago and I was one of the fanatic of the C* bottled tea drinks.

While reading this post, I bit my lips unconsciously as I was truly enticed to have even a sip of Real Leaf Green Tea. One thing's for sure, I will visit the grocery tomorrow just to check if it's available here in our country.

Definitely, Edel's entry is second to none. I know by heart that you will win, 'del!

Good luck to you and to all Real Leaf Green Tea patrons.

Always,
Jen*

January 29, 2010 at 12:15 AM

Your brother is quite impressive and funny. Impressive in the sense, that he loves drinking that tea drink and he is health conscious about himself. Its funny because he has this growing collection of empty tea bottles at home and he was even hugging one the bottles while drinking it. It must be his first love?! =)

First time to hear Real Leaf Green Tea, i'm sure super sarap 'yan with matching pakikinig ng alternative sounds from my new HTC HD2...hehe (just kidding). I think 'la pa sa Saudi 'nyan-partikular d2 sa Jeddah ('lam ko ilang products of some beverages from Nestle' ang available d2-Purified Waters & Drinks).Anyway, paguwi namin, 'will try to buy more Real Leaf Green Tea.Heard na it's refreshing & healthy drink, just maybe bec.,it has zero callories & zero milligrams of caffeine. It's really good to health for my family. GOODLUCK!

Haha, talaga adik na yan brother mo. In a good way of course. *cough* cough* sure ka thats real leaf tea he is drinking, its not mix with anything. Baka diskarte lang yan, haha. Nah just messing with you. Anyways almost any type of green tea are healthy. Although i prefer hot tea as to bottle tea like the one that your brother drink. To me that is almost like drinking a c* soda (here sa amin the term soda is the same as soft drinks). You see hot tea are more effective since its all natural, just the tea itself and the hot water, no preservatives of whatever ingredients they have put on the bottle label like the ones that your bro is drinking, that says real leaf tea. Sometimes words are misleading and you really have to read the ingredient label and if their are stuff in there that u have no idea what it means then its not really original flavor since its already mix with other ingredients thus lowering the effectiveness of the real leaf tea...
