This queen of flowers has long been used in aromatherapy to help relax the nervous system and treat depression.

History
Flavoring black and green teas is an ancient tradition. The Chinese first began flavoring teas during the Song dynasty by adding freshly picked jasmine, lotus, gardenias, rose and chrysanthemum flowers, which imparted their delicate essence to tea.
Today, green tea is picked and stored until jasmine season arrives. Fresh jasmine blossoms are layered with the tea overnight in chests and left to absorb the flowers delicate scent and flavor. Mountain Spring Jasmine is one of the most famous scented green Chinese teas. Popular flavored black teas include Lychee and Rose Petal.
