Green Tea - recommendations?

I love the Green Tea in Starbucks it has a hint of mint that's really good, the sell bags x 10, but I was wondering if people knew something similar, a cheaper alternative. I was a big fan of Clipper's Green Tea with nettle, it had some peppermint too, and was amazing, but I never see it anywhere?

Anyone recommend other green tea?

I would also recommend the green tea from Aldi, only €1.20 or something like that.
Comes in loads of different flavours too

Green tea with mint is often called Marrakesh tea, so keep an eye out for it under that name.
The good news is - it's one of the least expensive teas. 100g of good loose leaf mint-green shouldn't be more than about €4.
For other flavours - There's all kinds out there - a lot of people seem to really like jasmine-green (don't get it personally).
Hard to beat a good unflavoured green tea though.

Hey, thanks guys. I think Marrakesh is what I'm after. I've tried the Jasmine, I quite like it, and the Aldi tea is great value, but for me, neither come close to revitalising effects of green with some mint. Thanks for the advice
