Introduction
Peach Blossom Tea, one of the most renowned floral teas, has a rich history that dates back to ancient China, where it was cherished for its delicate flavor and beauty. Originating from regions known for their exceptional peach cultivation, such as Zhejiang and Jiangsu provinces, Peach Blossom Tea captures the essence of spring with its fragrant aroma and subtle sweetness. The natural geography of these regions, with their fertile soil, mild climate, and abundant rainfall, creates ideal conditions for growing high-quality peach blossoms. The production process involves harvesting the peach blossoms at their peak bloom, carefully drying them to preserve their natural oils and fragrance, and sometimes blending them with green, white, or black tea leaves to enhance the flavor profile.

Storage Tips
To preserve the freshness and quality of Peach Blossom Tea, store it in an airtight container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and strong odors. Avoid storing the tea in the kitchen or other damp areas. Proper storage ensures that the tea retains its delicate flavors and aromatic qualities over time. For long-term storage, consider refrigerating the tea in an airtight container to further extend its shelf life.
Brewing Method
To brew a perfect cup of Peach Blossom Tea, follow these steps:
1. Measure: Use about 1-2 teaspoons of dried peach blossoms or peach blossom tea blend per 150 ml of water.
2. Rinse: If using peach blossoms blended with tea leaves, rinse the tea leaves with hot water (around 80-85°C or 176-185°F) and discard the water. This helps to "wake up" the leaves and cleanse them.
3. Infuse: Add the dried peach blossoms or the rinsed tea blend to a teapot or gaiwan and pour in hot water. Steep for about 2-3 minutes for the first infusion.
4. Serve: Pour the tea into a cup, leaving some water in the pot to cover the leaves.
5. Repeat: The same leaves can be steeped multiple times, with each infusion revealing new layers of flavor. Adjust steeping time for subsequent infusions as needed.
