There is also a reasonable amount of caffeine in this Jasmine Tea, which, like most Green Tea types, usually amounts to 30-mg per 8-oz cup. Additionally, it might come with Jasmine Tea benefits, improving your life in small yet significant ways.
Most people, however, choose it for its exceptional, indeed extraordinary, flavour. Why not discover its full potential today with us?
Process of Making Celestial Jasmine Tea
- Dutiful workers harvest jasmine-buds while the sun is out and after the dew has evaporated.
- Only buds due to bloom that same evening are picked before arriving at the factory.
- The soon-to-be flowers are then stored until night when they blossom, releasing their scent.
- It is at this point that workers place jasmine into basket trays near Green Tea leaves.
- After some hours, the Tea underneath absorbs the fragrance and distinct floral flavour of jasmine.

Benefs of Celestial Jasmine Tea
This beverage contains L-theanine, an amino acid capable of reducing anxiety while promoting sleep. It functions by increasing the body’s production of Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), serotonin and dopamine.
GABA, in particular, plays an essential role in behaviour, cognition and the body’s response to stress. Serotonin and dopamine also have a similar effect, regulating emotions, mood and concentration.
According to research published in the Journal of Nutrition & Intermediary Metabolism, L-theanine reduced anxiety in 104 participants experiencing stressful situations. Another study shows that green tea benefits can increase relaxation without causing drowsiness.
