Flower Power

Jasmine, i.e. “gift from God” is a genus of shrubs and vines that grow as climbers on others, including the fences.

Jasmine Flower Tea -
Preparation

The delicate Jasmine flower opens only at night during the full moon and is plucked in the morning when the tiny petals are tightly closed. They are then stored in a cool place until night. Between six and eight in the evening, as the temperature cools, the petals begin to open. Flowers and tea are "mated" in machines that control temperature and humidity.It takes four hours for the tea to absorb the fragrance and flavour of the Jasmine blossoms..... and the process goes on an on... till the spent flowers are removed from the final product, as the flowers are completely dry and contain no aroma.
