荔枝花茶

Steeping one of these flowers in my clear teapot was half the fun — watching it slowly unfurl into a bloom while the water turned a soft jade green. The jasmine and lychee balance each other nicely, sweet but not cloying, and I got about 20 flowers so it'll last me a while.

The lychee flavor really comes through without being too sweet, and the jasmine keeps it light. I get about 20 flowers in the tin, so it'll last me a while at one cup a day.

Watched one of these unfurl in my clear teapot and the jasmine scent hit before I even poured. Twenty flowers per pack is plenty since I'm only steeping one or two at a time, and the lychee stays sweet without going syrupy.
