A perfect cup of tea does not hurry. It begins with love, light, and a quiet moment just for you.
Start with fresh, cold water, and bring it to a gentle heat — not a hard, rolling boil that burns the leaf. For green teas like our Jasmine Pearls, warm water, about 180°, is just right. For black teas, let it come a little hotter.
Warm your cup first. A warm cup keeps the tea warm, and keeps the moment warm too.
Measure with care. One and a half teaspoons of premium loose-leaf tea for every 8 ounces of water. Watch the leaves as they open — Jasmine Pearls slowly unfurl, giving you everything, slowly, sweetly, and all at once.
Pour the water gently over the leaves. Let them steep, not rush. Two to two and a half minutes for Jasmine Pearls. Breathe. Sit. Let the light come back to you.
Then pour, slowly, and taste. A great tea can be steeped more than once — the second cup is often the most beautiful.
That is the perfect cup. Not just tea in a cup, but love, light, and luxury, one golden sip at a time.
