Jasmine Dragon Pearl green tea

The Jasmine Dragon Pearl is a fragrant green tea with a pleasant, delicate, jasmine aroma. It combines Chinese green tea with the flavour and fragrance of jasmine flower petals. During the day, they pick and collect the fully blossomed jasmine flowers, and when the night comes, they harvest jasmine petals and leaves to layer on top of each other. The way they combine the fragrance of jasmine flowers with the green tea is by having six alternating layers of leaves and petals. The quality of the jasmine tea is fully dependent on how well the green tea base managed to absorb the floral scent.

When it comes to how beneficial jasmine tea is health wise, many believe that it even surpasses those of green tea. In addition to the antioxidant properties of green tea, some probable advantages of jasmine tea include prolonging life expectancy and reducing cholesterol levels. Jasmine tea leaves are often rolled into balls, which are then named jasmine pearls.

We suggest using either a glass or porcelain teapot, but a glass cup should serve the purpose too. Rinse the teacups and teapot with hot water. For every 150 – 250 ml of water, put approximately 6 grams of tea leaves (around ten jasmine pearls) in. For the first and second infusions, use water that has been heated to 90 °C, and steep the tea leaves for one minute. It can be infused for up to 4 – 5 times. Gradually increase the steeping time for subsequent infusions.
