This is because jasmine has a clear fragrance, while tea tastes mellow and refreshing, rich and pleasant. For high-grade scented tea, you should cover the cup with transparent glass, put 3g of scented tea into the cup, brew it with boiling water slightly cooled to about 90℃, and then cover the cup to prevent fragrance loss. After two or three minutes, you can have a drink and feel fragrant and refreshing.

Summer is very hot, the sun is like fire, people sweat in it, people consume a lot of physical strength and are depressed. At this time, it is best to taste green tea.

In autumn, the sky is high and the clouds are light, the golden wind is bleak, the flowers and trees are withered, and the climate is dry, which makes people thirsty and chapped. Chinese medicine calls it "autumn dryness", so it's time to drink green tea. Green tea, also known as oolong tea, belongs to semi-fermented tea, which is between green tea and black tea. The colors are blue and brown. After brewing, you can see that the middle of the leaves is blue and the edges are red. It is called "the edge of green leaves".

Black tea is warm and can nourish human yang; Black tea is rich in protein and sugar, which can warm the abdomen by heating, enhance the cold resistance of human body, and help digestion and greasy. Black tea is also called fully fermented tea because it is fully fermented during processing, thus oxidizing the tannins in tea. Fresh tea leaves are oxidized to form red oxidative polymerization products-theaflavins, thearubigins and theabrownins. Some of the pigments are dissolved in water and brewed to form black tea soup.

When brewing black tea, it is advisable to brew with freshly boiled water and cover the cup lid to avoid releasing aroma.
