    Hi Sakshi,

    Green Tea has numerous health benefits since it is loaded with antioxidants -- particularly its potential to fight cancer and heart disease, lowering cholesterol, burning fat, preventing diabetes and stroke, and staving off dementia.

    Consuming a cup or two each day will help immensely in the long run. I have been drinking green tea since a few years now. It is also said to increase metabolism and hence aid weight loss.

    You can either buy green tea bags or buy green tea leaves. I use green tea leaves (you can buy that at any tea store like Teavana or online). There are many flavored green teas - I particularly like the Rasberry/Mango flavored green tea leaves. You need to buy a simple tea infuser (like an individual cup filter) - which you can also buy at the tea store/online. The process for making a cup of green tea with leaves is:

    1) Fill a cup with boling water
    2) Add a teaspoon of green tea leaves in the infuser/cup filter and put in in the cup of water
    3) Allow it to steep for 2-3 minutes and then take the infuser out
    4) Enjoy your cuppa :)

    (Make sure that you don't steep longer than the specified time since it might get bitter).

    Here are some tea stores in Houston:
    Welcome to Té House of Tea — Te House of Tea Houston
    Teavana.com - A Heaven of Tea

    Hope this helps!
