Description
Jasmine Dragon Pearls – Traditional Hand-Rolled Jasmine Green TeaAn age-old tradition handed down from generation to generation, our Jasmine Dragon Pearls are crafted in Fujian Province, China. Aromatic night-blooming jasmine flowers are layered between fresh, young luxury green tea leaves and buds eight to ten times, infusing the tea with their distinct, exquisite floral aroma. The jasmine-infused tea is then rolled by hand, at a ratio of two leaves to one unopened bud, into small, beautiful "pearls." As they infuse in your cup, the pearls unfurl majestically, showcasing traditional craftsmanship while releasing the perfect blend of delicate jasmine and luxury green tea. Tasting Notes

Questions about Jasmine Dragon Pearls
How are jasmine pearls made?
Night-blooming jasmine blossoms are layered between young green tea leaves and buds 8–10 times, so the leaves soak up the flowers' natural scent. The tea is then rolled by hand into small pearls, two leaves to one bud.
Loose pearls or tea bags: which is better?
Loose pearls give the full aroma and can be steeped several times. The 25 tea bags are quicker for work or travel. Pick pearls for flavor and bags for convenience.
Can I make iced jasmine tea?
Yes. Cold brew 2 teaspoons of pearls in 16 oz of cold water in the fridge for 6–8 hours, then strain. It comes out smooth and floral with no bitterness.
How many times can I steep them?
Two or three times. Add a little time with each new steep.
How do I keep them fresh?
Store them in an airtight, opaque container away from heat, light and strong smells. Jasmine aroma fades with air, so close the bag well.
How many cups are in a 100 g bag?
About 40 cups at about 2.5 g per 8 oz cup.
