Apothecary Jasmine Silver Needle White Tea

Apothecary’s Jasmine Silver Needle is a loose-leaf white tea from China that pairs silver-tipped white tea leaves with jasmine blossoms. The result is a delicate, floral cup with soft sweetness and a smooth, gentle finish. It is a good choice when you want something lighter than a black tea but with more aroma than a plain white.

Why You’ll Love This Apothecary White Tea

• Jasmine layered over silver tips: The fragrance of jasmine blossoms rests on top of the mild, subtly sweet character of the silver-tipped white tea leaves.
• Smooth and easygoing: Expect a soft, rounded mouthfeel with balanced floral sweetness rather than sharp bitterness.
• Made for re-steeping: The whole leaves have room to open in your pot or infuser, so one serving can carry you through several infusions. Each steep shows a slightly different side of the tea.
• Flexible serving: Enjoy it plain to taste the jasmine clearly, or add a splash of milk or a plant-based alternative for a creamy jasmine milk tea.
• Try before you commit: Start with a sample to get to know the flavor, then move up to the 2.5oz. pouch for everyday brewing or gifting to a floral tea fan.

How to Brew

Heat water to 160–180°F, well below boiling, to protect the delicate leaves. Steep for 3–5 minutes and adjust to your taste. Re-infuse the same leaves 3–5 times.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Apothecary Jasmine Silver Needle White Tea have caffeine?
Yes. Like all white tea, it comes from the Camellia sinensis plant and contains natural caffeine. The caffeine level of this white tea is low, so it suits an afternoon cup when you want something gentler than a typical black tea.

How should I brew Apothecary Jasmine Silver Needle White Tea?
Use water between 160–180°F and steep for 3–5 minutes. Water that is too hot can flatten the jasmine aroma. The leaves can be re-steeped 3–5 times.

Can Apothecary Jasmine Silver Needle White Tea be made as a milk tea?
Yes. Its smooth body and floral sweetness work well with steamed milk or a non-dairy alternative for a creamy, aromatic jasmine milk tea.
