Jasmine Tea
Loose green and Oolong tea is often scented with jasmine flowers to create an aromatic blend. Many people prefer jasmine infusions because the flowers calm the nerves and sooth the senses. Jasmine has long been used in aromatherapy as a sedative and to increase relaxation levels. Flavored brews containing hints of mint, lemon, and vanilla are also quite popular.
The Benefits of Buying Jasmine-Scented Loose Tea
Many of the health benefits associated with buying scented loose tea are derived from the green or Oolong leaves that make up the base of the blend. Jasmine blends may lower cholesterol levels and fight off free radicals when combined with loose leaf green varieties. When flowers are combined with black tea, the health benefits may include increased concentration and improvements in circulation. The high flavonoid content of loose leaf green varieties helps to fight off heart disease and strokes.
The primary benefit of floral infusion is to improve taste. Jasmine tends to take the edge off some bitter black teas and helps to neutralize acidic-tasting leafy-green varieties. Floral and herbal ingredients enhance the sensory experience of most brews. A strong floral bouquet helps to stimulate olfactory senses and enhances the overall enjoyment of most beverages.
The Tea Farm is an online service that offers a variety of loose leaf floral blends and herbal-flavored brews. In order to achieve the maximum benefits of these brews, it's a good idea to drink them two to three times a week, along with highly potent black, green and white varieties.
