The Republic of Tea Jasmine Jazz Green Tea (1 Pound)

It depends on what you're looking for. For jasmine green tea specifically, The Republic of Tea's Jasmine Jazz consistently earns praise for its strong jasmine flavor and incredibly fragrant aroma — multiple reviewers say it's superior to other brands they've tried. The full-leaf loose format also puts it a step above most mass-market green teas. If you're a jasmine lover, this is a top-tier choice.

The Republic of Tea estimates about 200 cups from the 1-pound bag, using roughly one teaspoon per cup. In practice, you might get even more if you re-steep your leaves — and full-leaf tea like this handles re-steeping well. The first steep gives you that bold, fragrant jasmine hit, and the second steep is a bit lighter but still flavorful. For daily drinkers, this bag can easily last several months.

Yes, and this is one of the advantages of full-leaf loose tea over tea bags. The whole leaves in Jasmine Jazz can typically handle 2-3 steeps. The first steep will give you the boldest jasmine flavor and most fragrance. Subsequent steeps will be lighter and more mellow, letting more of the green tea base come through. Re-steeping also stretches the value of this premium tea even further, getting more cups out of that 1-pound bag.

Absolutely — this is one of the most common reasons reviewers reach for Jasmine Jazz. Multiple drinkers specifically highlight the calming effect, and several describe it as part of a special tea time ritual. The combination of L-theanine in the green tea and the naturally soothing jasmine aroma creates a genuinely relaxing experience. If you're looking for a tea to help you unwind at the end of the day, this is an excellent choice — just keep the earlier-in-the-evening timing in mind due to the caffeine.

For the best cup of Jasmine Jazz, use water that's around 175°F (80°C) — not boiling, which can scorch green tea and make it bitter. Use about one teaspoon of loose leaves per 8 ounces of water and steep for 2-3 minutes. Since this is a full-leaf tea, the leaves have room to unfurl and release that bold jasmine flavor reviewers love. You can even re-steep the same leaves for a second, slightly lighter cup.

Absolutely, and it's delicious cold brewed. Add about 1-2 tablespoons of Jasmine Jazz leaves to a pitcher of cold water, refrigerate for 6-8 hours (or overnight), then strain. Cold brewing produces a smooth, naturally sweet cup that highlights the floral jasmine notes without any bitterness. It's a fantastic way to enjoy this tea in warmer weather, and since cold brewing extracts less caffeine, it's great for evening sipping too.

You have two options. For quick iced tea, brew it double-strength — use two teaspoons per cup, steep 2-3 minutes in 175°F water, then pour over a full glass of ice. The ice dilutes it to perfect strength and you get that fragrant jasmine aroma immediately. For a smoother result, cold brew it overnight in the fridge. Either way, this tea's bold jasmine flavor holds up well over ice, which is something lighter jasmine teas can struggle with.

Quality jasmine tea requires a labor-intensive scenting process where green tea leaves are layered with fresh jasmine blossoms, sometimes repeatedly, to absorb the fragrance. The Republic of Tea's Jasmine Jazz is a full-leaf loose tea, which means you're getting whole leaves rather than the broken bits found in tea bags — and that costs more. Reviewers do note this is a premium-priced tea, but the 1-pound bulk bag actually offers better value since it steeps around 200 cups, bringing the per-cup cost down significantly compared to buying smaller tins.

Jasmine green tea IS green tea — it's just been scented with jasmine blossoms, so you get all the same health benefits plus a gorgeous floral aroma and flavor. The choice really comes down to taste preference. If you find plain green tea a bit grassy or bland, jasmine green tea like this Jasmine Jazz is a wonderful alternative. Reviewers rave about how fragrant and full-bodied this one is, with a bold jasmine flavor that makes every cup feel like a treat rather than a health chore.

The biggest mistake is using boiling water. Green tea — especially a delicate jasmine green like this one — needs cooler water around 175°F. Boiling water will make it bitter and mask the beautiful jasmine notes. The second mistake is over-steeping; 2-3 minutes is the sweet spot. With a full-leaf loose tea like Jasmine Jazz, you also want to make sure your leaves have room to expand, so avoid cramming them into a tiny infuser. Give them space and they'll reward you with that vibrant, fragrant cup reviewers love.

Steep your loose leaves in water around 175°F for 2-3 minutes — no sugar, no milk. This preserves the maximum amount of catechins and antioxidants. Loose-leaf tea like this Jasmine Jazz is already a healthier choice than tea bags since full leaves retain more beneficial compounds. The jasmine scenting is natural, so there are no artificial additives. If you want a touch of sweetness, a small drizzle of honey is a better option than sugar.

Green tea has moderate caffeine — typically 25-50 mg per cup, which is roughly half of what you'd get from coffee. This jasmine green tea falls in that same range. Reviewers describe it as providing a calm, gentle energy rather than a jolt. It's enough to give you a nice lift without keeping most people up at night, though if you're very caffeine-sensitive, you might want to enjoy it earlier in the day.

For most people, green tea is very well tolerated. Potential side effects are mainly caffeine-related: insomnia if you drink it too late, or stomach upset if you drink it on an empty stomach. The tannins in green tea can also reduce iron absorption, so if you're anemic, avoid drinking it with meals. None of the reviewers of this Jasmine Jazz tea reported any negative side effects — the most common feedback was actually about how calming and enjoyable it is.
