Jasmine Milk Tea is a refreshing drink with subtle, floral flavors of jasmine, combined with creamy milk. It's easy to prepare and has a mild, caffeine kick to help energize you.
What is Jasmine Milk Tea?
Jasmine milk tea is made from green tea leaves that have absorbed jasmine floral fragrance. Jasmine green tea originated from China. In Vietnamese, jasmine green tea is called trà lài. Trà pronounced "trah" means tea and lài pronounced "lie," means jasmine.
There are several jasmine green tea brands, but I use this brand. It was very popular back then and still is today.
Jasmine milk tea is believed to have originated from Taiwan, where tea culture has deep roots and creative blends. Jasmine milk tea is also a very popular boba tea flavor and can be made hot or cold. Jasmine tea is fragrant and energizing as it has caffeine naturally. When milk is added to it, it becomes a creamier and more indulgent drink.
