Is green tea bad or good before you sing?

October 18, 2009

My singing teacher tells me to drink green tea with honey in it before I sing, but sites online say that tea is bad to drink before you sing. Is tea bad, but is green tea okay? Which one is true?

Green tea is fine-it hydrates you and if drunk warm with honey it will soothe your throat. There is caffeine in green tea, but it is minimal.

Black tea and coffee on the other hand should be avoided due to the caffeine content, caffeine being a dehyrator.
