Description

Jasmine flowers are a delicate and gently aromatic delight and have been used for hundreds of years for both their esthetic and health benefiting properties.

Jasmine can be used as an addition to your favorite teas or made into a tisane of its own.  It is an excellent addition to green teas in particular and we highly recommend throwing them in a warm bath for a particularly relaxing soak!

Uses

Jasmine flowers have reportedly been used as a gentle remedy for inflammation and they may reduce both physical irritation and sensitivity to pain. Jasmine teas have been said to act as a gentle sedative.  Jasmine has been used in Ayurvedic medicine to reduce breast milk and milk production in general.
