What is Jasmine milk tea?
Jasmine milk tea is a popular tea drink in Taiwan and China. The drink is made with jasmine flowers and milk. It’s usually served hot or cold, but it can be served hot or cold, depending on your preference.
The flavor of this tea is very delicate and sweet. Jasmine flowers are known for their intense fragrance, so this tea has a natural honey-like sweetness to it that makes it a great choice for those who want something light and refreshing on a hot day!

How to make jasmine milk tea
- Heat 2 cups of water in a saucepan over medium–high heat until it boils
- Add 2 teaspoons of jasmine tea leaves to the boiling water and steep for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Strain the tea into a mug or cup using a fine mesh sieve and discard the tea leaves.
- Stir 1 teaspoon of honey or sugar (or more to taste) into the hot jasmine tea until dissolved completely, then set aside to cool for 5 minutes before adding ice cubes if desired; alternatively you can keep it warm and enjoy as is!

- Slowly pour the cooled jasmine tea over the cold milk, stirring gently as you go to combine them together.
Tips for making the perfect jasmine milk tea
- Use jasmine–scented tea leaves when brewing the milk tea to give it an extra depth of flavor.
- If you want a lighter taste, use more water than normal when brewing your tea leaves
- To make sure that all the flavors come together nicely, steep the brewed tea in warm milk for about 5 minutes before adding ice cubes and serving cold with a straw or spoonful of tapioca pearls on top (optional).
- Boil fresh water and let cool slightly before adding it to the teapot containing jasmine leaves; this will avoid over–brewing and bitterness in the final product.
- Sweeten with raw honey or pure maple syrup to taste; avoid artificial sweeteners which can negate some of the health benefits of jasmine tea.
How to properly store your Jasmine Milk tea
The best way to keep your jasmine milk tea is in a sealed container in the fridge. This will keep the taste fresh and prevent it from going bad.
If you have leftovers, don’t worry! The leftover portion of your tea can be stored in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

Conclusion
I have to say; I was really impressed by the taste of this Tea. The flavor is strong, as is the tea, but that allows for a lot of room for subtlety in your steeping process. A lot of other black teas often become too bitter when steeped for long periods of time, but Jasmine Milk Tea maintains a relatively smooth flavor at all times. The subtle aroma and the rich taste are both fantastic.
