From Our Laguna Beach Tea Shop

Organic Jasmine Green Tea has converted more than a few purists in our shop. We hear the same line all the time: I only drink plain green tea. They expect the jasmine to overpower the leaf, so we never argue the point. We hand them the sniffer and let the aroma do the talking, and more often than not they leave with a small bag just to try. A few days later they are back asking for a much bigger one.

If Jasmine Green has you exploring the jasmine family, Jasmine Pearls is the same pairing in a hand-rolled whole leaf form, a completely different experience of the same flower. And if you want to take that floral note somewhere more complex, Rose Jasmine Oolong is the one to try next.

  • How to brew it hot

    Use 1 teaspoon of loose leaf tea per 8 ounces of filtered water. Heat your water to 175-180°F and steep for 2-3 minutes. Green tea turns bitter when the water runs too hot.

  • How to make iced tea

    Use 2 teaspoons of loose leaf tea per 8 ounces of filtered water. Heat your water to 175-180°F and steep for 2-3 minutes, then pour over a full glass of ice. The extra leaf keeps the cup from thinning out as the ice melts.

  • How to cold brew

    Use 1.5 teaspoons of loose leaf tea per 8 ounces of filtered water. Steep in your fridge for 3 to 6 hours. Strain out the leaves and enjoy! Cold water pulls a smoother cup with no bitterness.

Beyond the Cup: Make Something Tasty with This Organic Jasmine Green Tea

Berrylicious Jasmine Scones

Makes about 8 scones (estimated)

Ground jasmine green tea leaves work their way into a buttery scone dough studded with frozen blackberries and raspberries, finished with a coarse sugar crust.

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp jasmine green tea leaves
  • 1.5 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 6 tbsp cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
  • 4 oz frozen blackberries
  • 4 oz frozen raspberries
  • 3/4 cup plus 2 tbsp heavy cream
  • Coarse sugar, to top

Instructions

  1. Heat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
  2. Place jasmine tea leaves in a food processor, and process to a fine grind. Add the flour, almond flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder to the food processor bowl. Pulse to blend all dry ingredients.
  3. Add in the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles wet sand. Pour three quarters of a cup of the heavy cream over the mixture and pulse until dough starts to come together. Turn dough into a bowl and fold in berries.
  4. Transfer the dough to a heavily floured work surface and pat it into a 1-inch-thick square. Transfer to the parchment-lined baking sheet. Refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours. When ready to bake, remove the scones from the refrigerator, brush the tops with the remaining 2 tbsp of heavy cream, and sprinkle with coarse sugar.
  5. Transfer to oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until tops and bottom edges start to turn golden. Cool scones on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy!
