Why Is The Urine Yellow?

Hello, I drink a glass of hot green tea in the morning with breakfast and a cup at night with dinner. In between those two meals, all I drink is water (approx. four 16oz cups), is there a reason as to why my urine is still yellow majority of the time?

Hello,

urine is responsible for yellow urine.
