Jasmine tea is a mixture of jasmine flowers with (mostly) green tea. The addition of jasmine gives the green tea a special flavor. Originally, jasmine was intended to enhance lower-quality teas. In the meantime, however, jasmine tea is considered a particularly fine tea specialty.

The tea is produced with different methods: Either whole flowers are added to the green tea or the tea is flavored with the help of the rising steam of a jasmine flower bath.
