Jasmine tisane is consumed in China, where it is called Jasmine flower tea Jasmine Leaves and flowers are also used to make tea, which often has a base of green tea, but sometimes an Oolong base is used. The delicate Jasmine flower opens only at night during the full moon and is plucked in the morning when the tiny petals are tightly closed. They are then stored in a cool place until night. Between six and eight in the evening, as the temperature cools, the petals begin to open. Flowers and tea are "mated" in machines that control temperature and humidity. It takes four hours or so for the tea to absorb the fragrance and flavor of the Jasmine blossoms, and for the highest grades, this process may be repeated as many as seven times. Because the tea has absorbed moisture from the flowers, it must be refried to prevent spoilage. The spent flowers may or may not be removed from the final product, as the flowers are completely dry and contain no aroma. Giant fans are used to blow away and remove the petals from the denser tea leaves. If present, they simply add visual appeal and are no indication of the quality of the tea.

How To Brew Tea Firstly, use filtered or spring water : your tea will only be as good as your water.
Black Tea :
Heat water to a rolling boil Use 1 level teaspoon/ 8 oz. cup Flavored and small leaf teas : 3 min. steep Full leaf teas: 3-5 min. steep.
Oolong Tea :
Heat water to a rolling boil. Use 1 level teaspoon/ 8 oz. cup. Larger leaf teas : 7-12 min. steep. Jade Oolongs: 5- 8 min. steep.
Green Tea :
This step is very important !! : Heat water to steam: not boiling !!! If your water does come to a boil, allow it to settle for 45-60 sec. before preparing your tea. This will prevent it from becoming bitter…. Use 1 level teaspoon/ 8 oz. cup. Steep for 2- 2 1/2 min. White Tea is prepared like green tea except that it requires a 3-5 min. steep. Resteep 2-3 times.
Herbal Infusions:
Bring water to a rolling boil. Use 1 tablespoon/ 8 oz. cup or 1 oz./ qt. water. Sipping tea require a 10 min. steep. Medicinal and or root teas require a 15-30 min. steep. Rooibos can be steeped from 10-20 minutes--it requires at least 10 minutes to release all it's stored Vitamin C (which on an ounce to ounce basis ,Rooibos has the same levels)
These guidelines are for reference only---experimentation may yield the perfect cup for your palate. Now sit back and enjoy……….
