2. Directions

2.1 Steep the jasmine tea

Add the jasmine tea to a cup or teapot, pour in 120ml of hot water (about 80 - 85 °C), and let it steep for 5 - 10 minutes. Then strain out the leaves and let the tea cool a bit.

Steep the tea according to your taste. If you like it light, 4 - 5 minutes is enough. Want it stronger? Leave it a bit longer. Just don’t go over 10 minutes, or the tea can become bitter.

2.2 Make the jasmine raspberry tea

Add the raspberry jam, sugar, and cooled jasmine tea to a shaker and shake well. Add some ice and shake for 10 - 15 seconds to chill and froth it.

Don’t have a shaker? No worries. Just stir it all in a glass until it’s well mixed.

2.3 Finish and enjoy

Drop in the shredded coconut jelly, pour the shaken tea over it, and top with a few orange or lemon slices for a nice touch. Now it’s ready to enjoy!

2.4 Your refreshing drink

This jasmine raspberry tea with shredded coconut jelly is sweet, tart, and full of tea flavor. The chewy, lightly sweet coconut jelly pairs perfectly with the tea, creating the perfect refresher for hot summer days.

Quick tip for a tastier drink:

  • Chill the shredded coconut jelly in the fridge for extra crunch and refreshment.
