Description
Genmaicha (""brown rice tea"") is the Japanese name for green tea combined with roasted brown rice. It is sometimes referred to colloquially as ""popcorn tea"" because a few grains of the rice pop during the roasting process and
resemble popcorn. This type of tea was originally drunk by poor Japanese, as the rice served as a filler and reduced the price of the tea; which is why it is also known as the ""people's tea.
