Jasmine Tea

Jasmine Tea 

I love this explanation from Wikipedia about how Jasmine tea is made -

Tea leaves are harvested in the early spring and stored until the late summer when fresh jasmine flowers are in bloom. Jasmine flowers are picked early in the day when the small petals are tightly closed. The flowers are kept cool until nightfall. During the night, jasmine flowers open, releasing their fragrance. This is when the tea scenting takes place. There are two main methods used to scent the tea with the jasmine.In one method the tea and flowers are placed in alternating layers; in the other, the tea is blended with jasmine flowers and stored overnight.It takes over four hours for the tea to absorb the fragrance and flavour of the jasmine blossoms. The scenting process may be repeated as many as six or seven times for top grades such as Yin Hao.The tea absorbs moisture from the fresh Jasmine flowers so it must be dried again to prevent spoilage.
