Why should You Select Loose Leaf and Buddha Tears Tea?

Whether it’s to get a hit of fresh and energising taste in the morning or to relax after a long day’s work, tea has become the regular beverage of many households today. Besides the great taste, tea also has innumerable health benefits that make it a perfect healthy drink for everyone. In many households, tea is normally made using processed teabags, but this method of making tea has a few drawbacks. The real taste and aroma of tea can be enjoyed when one uses loose leaf tea and especially when those loose leaves consist of Buddha tears.


Making tea using the normal teabags is at times less expensive and definitely less messy, but often it leaves a bitter and flat taste in our mouth. That is because in the teabags the tealeaves don’t have enough space to expand and release the true taste of the tea, this is especially true when it comes to green and white tea. At times we can also taste the flavour of the material from which the teabags are made in our tea. To get the perfect blend of taste and sweet aroma of tea, it is best to use loose leaf tea rather than the teabag. When the loose tealeaves are added to the hot water, it has more space to expand and allow the water to be infused. This water extracts more vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and flavours from the leaves than it could from a tea bag. This gives the tea not only better taste and more aroma but also extra health benefits. 
 One of the most famous white teas in the world is the Buddha tears tea. It is also known as Jasmine Dragon Pearls. Though the name is depressing but the Buddha tears tea has phenomenal properties. The original and genuine source for this tea can be found in Fujian, China. It consists of silvery-white leaves and unopened white buds that look like pearls, rolled up into pea shape spheres. When these spheres open up inside the boiling water, they release the fragrance of jasmine flowers along with the taste of white tea. This tea contains more antioxidants than the regular green tea making it the perfect health drink anytime of the day. These antioxidants have the therapeutic properties to protect against some cancers, reduce cholesterol, decrease blood pressure and boost one’s immune system. So, the next time you are in the mood for tea, go for loose leaf tea or Buddha tears tea.
