Jasmine Tea: The Fragrant Star of Chinese Loose Leaf Tea

Looking for a tea that’s both calming and fragrant? Jasmine tea might just be your perfect match. As one of the most famous types of Chinese loose leaf tea, it combines the health benefits of green tea with the soothing scent of real jasmine flowers.


What Is Jasmine Tea?

Jasmine tea is a type of scented tea, traditionally made by layering green tea leaves with fresh jasmine blossoms. The flowers are replaced several times until the leaves fully absorb the floral aroma. The result is a naturally perfumed loose leaf tea that’s as beautiful as it is flavorful.

While green tea is the most common base, some jasmine teas also use white or oolong tea leaves.


The History Behind the Scent

Jasmine tea has been cherished in China since the Song Dynasty, over 800 years ago. It was once reserved for royalty and noble families because of the labor-intensive scenting process. Today, it’s one of the most popular teas worldwide—but authentic Chinese loose leaf jasmine tea is still a rare gem.

At TEALIU, we honor this tradition by using only real jasmine flowers—not artificial flavoring—and carefully sourcing our tea from local farms in China.


Why People Love Jasmine Tea

Here’s why jasmine tea has so many fans:

  • 🌼 Relaxing aroma: Calms the mind and reduces stress.

  • 🍃 Gentle green tea base: Fresh, light, and easy to drink.

  • 💧 Low caffeine: Gives you energy without causing jitters.

  • 🌿 Rich in antioxidants: Supports your immune system and promotes digestion.

Whether you’re winding down after work or starting your morning mindfully, jasmine tea helps create a peaceful moment.


How to Brew Jasmine Tea Right

Jasmine tea is delicate—so use water around 75–80°C (167–176°F). Steep for 5-10 second. Avoid boiling water, as it can burn the leaves and make the tea taste bitter.

We recommend a glass or porcelain cup so you can enjoy the color and aroma. One bag of our jasmine tea can be steeped 3–5 times.


Why Jasmine Tea Is the Ideal First Loose Leaf Tea

If you’ve only ever had tea from bags, jasmine tea will completely change your expectations. The fragrance is natural, not perfumy. The taste is smooth, not harsh. And you’ll notice how it evolves with each steep—a signature experience of true loose leaf tea.


Jasmine tea is more than just a drink—it’s a calming ritual, a fragrant pause in your day. If you’re looking to begin your journey into Chinese loose leaf tea, this floral classic is the perfect first step.
