As-Salaam Alaikum!

It is Spring again and the Yazmeen (Jasmine) is in full bloom.

Yazmeen is my favorite kind of tea and I have spent hundreds of dollars on pre-packaged Yazmeen tea bags.

The best can be found at The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf. I like to make a chai with honey, milk, cardamom, nutmeg and almond extract. So good! The Coffee Bean And Tea Leaf in my neighborhood is closed due to Corona but on my walks around town I have discovered some Yazmeen plants that I have put in my water bottles and have been blessed to partake of Yazmeen Water.

It is deliciousness!

There are different types of Yazmeen. I have tried the white blossoms with a little pink that grow on a vine type of plant as well as the yellow blossoms that grow on a bush or tree.

Just keep your nose open and when you get a whiff of Yazmeen follow it until you locate the plant.

The yellow are more fragrant and yield a better taste than the white but if you only have access to the white you can still enjoy that awesome Yazmeen flavor.

If you have the wherewithal, try it in ice cream and smoothies!

As Salaam Alaikum!
