I’m not sure when or why my tastebuds changed, but I went from actively disliking jasmine tea to craving it. Maybe the strong aroma is no longer triggering my migraine brain like it once did…
This is cheap, off-the-shelf grocery store jasmine, which I wouldn’t exactly recommend (I’ve always found bagged green tea a bit iffy) but it works for my purposes, which is easy coldbrewing. Plunk four teabags into a liter of cold water, stick in the fridge overnight, remove the next morning, and add two tablespoons of peach syrup. It’s soooooo good! There is something about the floral/fruity taste of jasmine (I always get a sort of “grape candy” flavor from jasmine) mixed with the sweet peach that just works for me. I’ve been downing liters of the stuff during this unending heatwave.
Flavors: Candy, Floral, Fruity, Grapes, Grass, Jasmine
Teavivre sells a peach jasmine pearl tea that was delicious, so I bet that is good! Are you making your peach syrup or can you buy them?
I found the flavor far too subtle on the Teavivre Peach Jasmine Pearl… it was fine, but I needed waaaaaaaaaay moar peach! I am just using the same sort of Peach syrup one would buy to use in cocktails, coffees, or Italian sodas (think Torani, Monin, Skinny Syrup, etc).
Mastress Alita: I have never tried any of those, but maybe I should! It sounds good.
