tea today: mountain spring jasmine

I guess you could say that I'm quite obsessed with Jasmine tea. I am always on the hunt for unique Jasmine blend and am amazed by the fabulous artistic concoctions (pearls are my favorite). Today I'm sipping on Mountain Spring Jasmine-Mighty Leaf. The blend is quite delicious with "China green tea leaves naturally scented by layers of Arabian jasmine buds." Normally I leave my tea naked, in order for the natural flavor to bloom, however today I added a drop of whole milk and some honey to change the taste ever so slightly. The aroma is earthy, refreshing and comforting (thanks to the milk). The lightness of the tea is perfect for an early afternoon. I'm curious to hear what your favorite Jasmine blends are-suggestions?

I have a floral suggestion, though it is not jasmine. Have you had Bao Zhong? It's a beautiful oolong. My favorite is from Rishi, and it's redolent of lilacs and lilies.

I've loved jasmine tea ever since my friend made me some of hers. I've not been able to find the exact one she made and I have no idea what it is called. It was a loose tea in an orange tin.

I've been drinking the two different jasmine teas that I have found in the area. I think I will buy some of this online though. Looks great. :)

Vi, glad to hear your share my love for Jasmine tea. I'd love to help you find the mystery Jasmine tea if you can provide any more details.

fabulous to know that you discovered other jasmine teas!

I highly recommend Mighty Leaf's Jasmine tea. Although if you prefer oolong tea (instead of Jasmine), I recently tried Teavana's Jasmine Oolong and it's lovely!
