Jasmine tea, a type of flower tea originating from China, is made by blending green tea or black tea with jasmine flower buds, allowing the tea to absorb the fragrance of the jasmine flowers. However, jasmine tea itself is not a type of green tea or black tea, but rather a distinct tea category.
First, let’s explore the process of making jasmine tea. In the process of making jasmine tea, high-quality green tea or black tea is usually chosen as the base. The tea leaves are layered with jasmine flowers, allowing the tea to absorb the fragrance of the flowers. This process is usually repeated several times until the tea fully absorbs the fragrance of the jasmine flowers, resulting in a unique floral taste. The process of making jasmine tea gives it a rich taste of tea itself, while also imparting a fresh fragrance of jasmine, resulting in a unique quality characteristic.
Next, let’s take a look at the benefits of jasmine tea. Jasmine tea has many beneficial effects on the body, such as invigorating the mind and spirit, soothing emotions, clearing heat and detoxifying the body, promoting smooth breathing and clearing the mind, and promoting digestion and appetite.
