June 1st Sipdown Challenge Prompt – in honor of June’s birthstone, the pearl
Although I have had this tea before, Ashman has not. I told him we needed to drink it today to fulfill a prompt and told him we would have it at afternoon snack time. When asked if he had a preference for snack, he said his only request was that there be one. I made blueberry cobbler and we ate a remarkable amount of it, both of us going back for seconds which we don’t usually do for snacks.
We have only done two steeps so far but I will make another in a few minutes.
Notes are as before – it is a mild green tea without so much astringency and bite as I have come across in many jasmine teas and even in pearl tea. The jasmine is lovely and just right – not heavy and cloying but also more than just a whisper. I would definitely be willing to repurchase this tea.

Uh oh… sounds like you’re now all out of jasmine green tea pearls! Looking forward to your reports from the next adventure!
Not out! The sipdown challenges can be fulfilled by any tea you have! I have over half the tin left, but it is a very small tin. I already have another jasmine silver needle to work on, too.
