    Tea Ceremony: Masala Chai Latte

    August 21, 2015 - By Aziza Ahmed Paula

    Tea Ceremony: Jasmine Jewel

    August 14, 2015 - By Aziza Ahmed Paula

    Originated from China, Jasmine Jewel is an exquisite tea hand blended with the essence of pure Jasmine flowers. The tea isn’t bitter, rather has a sweetly taste and smells very good. As it was raining in the morning, we decided to have something that will be lucid and comfortable. So the tea expert wanted to have Jasmine Jewel. Mishael bought it from a local tea store in Santa Fe. The tea didn’t require much detailed work. The water was on 80 degree Celsius when we started the steeping process.
