  • Spring Into Tea With Jasmine Pearl White Tea

    Posted on February 15, 2011 by alison

    Jasmine Pearl White Tea, is most exquisite, but also very economical.

    I use 3 pearls in a warmed cup. Pour water just off the bowl. Leave the pearls to settle in the cup. After about 5 minutes the pearls have opened fully into whole spidery leaves. The aroma is intense Jasmine, as this is a very superior white Tea. Can be topped up again with more hot water.

    Jasmine Pearl makes a wonderful gift for someone’s birthday or anniversary...... and remember at Rosie & Java we can gift wrap!

  • Flowering Art Tea For Your Valentine

    Posted on February 10, 2011 by alison

    Surprise your Valentine this weekend with a stunningly beautiful Flowering Art Tea and a stylish Glass Teapot.

    Especially recommended for Valentine’s Weekend is Rosie & Java Lady Rose Devotion, with the beauty and delicate fragrance of freshly cut roses, enhanced by light and refreshing superior green Chinese tea.

    Brewing Flowering Art Tea is not only easy but also dramatically magnificent.

    Place one tea-blossom into your glass teapot (or a clean glass cafetiere) for the maximum visual effect.

    Add water which has boiled but is now just off the boil and infuse the tea-blossom until it is fully open, usually about 5 to 10 minutes. Watch the long leaves unfurl to reveal the hidden flower treasure.

    Serve the infused tea, contemplate life and enjoy the Chinese flowering tea experience! To serve more cups of tea, top-up the teapot with hot water and continue to infuse for a few more minutes.

  • Green Tea - Why Drink It?

    Posted on January 26, 2011 by admin

    In Asia, green tea is quite popular . For many generations, the tea has already been part of family gatherings and even their daily lives. There are many reasons that explain why Asian folks loved to drink green tea. Except for its glorious taste, you may derive some health benefits from drinking green tea. Recently, medical communities and the western nations have recognized the benefits of drinking green tea. There are numerous reasons explaining why people should drink tea and these reasons are found in this post.

    The very first reason is that green tea is something different. You're probably used to drinking softdrinks, coffee, fruit juices, and other drinks. Green tea is something new that you need to try out. It's not everyday that you get to encounter something unique re taste and most specifically, only a few drinks have health benefits.

    Most westerners drink coffee several times per day and since it contains a bigger amount of caffeine, some individuals are looking into substituting green tea instead. You will surely enjoy the tea's nutty aroma and its sweet grassy flavour. Although some studies suggest that green tea also has caffeine, there are at present decaffeinated green tea sold in the market.

    Still, if you would like to go for the traditional green tea, it would help to know that the caffeine content is smaller in comparison to coffee. A few people get jitters and you can avoid this by taking green tea in reasonable amounts. Those who intend to stay late or people who work at night should drink green tea instead of coffee to help them stay awake.

    The second reason that explains why folk should drink tea is that it contains healing properties. Because of today's advanced science, many medical practitioners are discovering green tea's curative features. Green tea is typically made of antioxidants which can help in enhancing the overall fitness of an individual. If you lack energy to carry out the day's jobs and chores, don't forget to drink your tea because you will feel a burst of energy especially if you drink it every day.

    Healthy cells are also promoted by drinking tea. There are still other health benefits that you can take advantage. You see, if you drink green tea, you can forestall heart diseases, cancer, and other health problems. People who frequently become sick should take tea to boost the immune system's health. Folks with weight problems can also take green tea instead of water and juices to shed pounds since the tea can suppress appetite. You can take it anytime you like, before meals, during, and after meals.

    Are there still other reasons you can think of? So far, there's no other beverage that can offer you a large amount of health benefits. If you go to the groceries, you can find different kinds of green tea preparations. It would be best if you can grow a tea plant in order that you can prepare the first serving. But anyway, since folk today live a busy way of life, they mostly prefer the instant - from food to their drinks. There are currently bottled green tea which you can purchase and they are prepared to drink. Hurry and go to the local food shop now to purchse your green tea.

    If you'd like, you may take additions of green tea but prior to purchasing any, ask your doctor first. It might also be good if you check product reviews per the supplements. That way, you may know which brands sell more and which are useful. Find the doctor's guidance before taking any health supplement so that your actions can be led, most particularly if you're a pregnant girl or if you have certain allergies and sicknesses.

    If the Asian folks benefited from green tea for hundreds of years, then there's likely no reason why you shouldn't try it. Medical communities are promoting the intake of green tea, so don't be left behind. Join other people who are now discovering the health advantages of drinking tea.
