My new openness to jasmine lead me to buy a sample pack of this when I was in Sheng’s last. I followed the instructions on the sample pack and I probably should have just ignored them. This is a very strong Jasmine. I steeped 3.5g in 8oz of water for 1.5 mins. That was a little strong for me. The next infusion was much nicer I did the same but only steeped for 30 seconds. This was a sweet jasmine tea, but not as sweet as I have had in the past. I like this, but I think I have enjoyed a few others a bit more.

how did you ease yourself into jasmine? it’s always been a bit too cloying and floral for me….

Teavivr’e Peach Jasmine Pearls and Steepster Jasmine pearls. I have been needing something light in the afternoons and had these sitting around and game them a try. I don’t steep as long, it keeps some of the strongness of the floral out. I also had a very OLD batch of Jasmine dragon perls from Teavana that had lost a tad bit of the jasmine. I definitely have to be in the mood.

I started drinking tea while on a 4 month long cycling trip through South America. It seemed to always be a great way to warm up when I was cold and it was always available everywhere. Mate was the big tea of choice down there and it was also a great way to get to know people. When I returned home, my sister introduced me to Teavana and this launched me into the realm of loose leaf tea.
