These whole dried jasmine flowers from Jasminum officinale produce a delicate, subtly fragrant jasmine flower tea that is naturally caffeine-free. Unlike the jasmine bud (which concentrates aromatic oils in its tightly closed form), these open flowers offer a lighter, softer infusion. Traditionally used to promote relaxation and ease mild nervous tension, they also work beautifully in culinary and craft applications.
Key Benefits
- Caffeine-free: Pure dried jasmine flowers contain no caffeine, unlike jasmine-scented green or black teas. Ideal for an evening cup or for those sensitive to stimulants.
- Gentle and calming: Traditionally used to help ease mild anxiety and support relaxation. The aroma alone may help promote a sense of calm.
- Culinary uses: Add to baking, desserts, syrups, and cocktails for a floral note. Makes a beautiful garnish on cakes and salads.
- Craft and home: Perfect for potpourri, sachets, bath soaks, and homemade skincare. The open flowers are visually striking in craft blends.
Tea: Steep 1 to 2 teaspoons of dried jasmine flowers in a cup of hot water (80 to 85 degrees, not boiling) for 3 to 5 minutes. The result is a light, subtly sweet infusion with a soft floral aroma.
Blending: Pairs well with Chamomile for a soothing bedtime blend, or with Lavender for a deeply relaxing floral tea. Also lovely mixed with Lemon Balm for a bright, uplifting cup.
Culinary: Infuse into cream or milk for jasmine desserts. Stir through sugar to create floral sugar for baking. Float whole flowers in cocktails, mocktails, or sparkling water for an elegant touch.
Jasmine is known as the "Queen of the Night" because many species release their strongest fragrance after dark. This is why jasmine flowers for tea and perfume are traditionally harvested in the early morning, before the sun causes the volatile oils to evaporate.
True jasmine (Jasminum species) is non-toxic to dogs, cats, and horses according to the ASPCA. However, several plants commonly called "jasmine" (such as Carolina jessamine or star jasmine) are unrelated and may be toxic.
