Default How to enjoy Chinese jasmine tea

I have just got "Jasmine Mandarin tea". Does anyone know a tip to enjoy
it in the better/best way? Let me know if you have any!

these teas can vary, but I generally find that they're best done with
water that's not too hot (i.e. poured before boiling, just as the steam
and small bubbles are starting to surface). I usually steep for about 5
minutes, and then enjoy. I actually like the taste better as they cool
down a bit (and even cold sometimes.)

is that mandarin as in mandarin orange...? if it is, the best
way to enjoy it is to toss it in the trash. just kidding, it might
be great. like any other tea, jump in w/ both feet and start
experimenting with the Basic Three parameters; temp, time,
and tea.

I have discovered that eating oranges while drinking plain jasmine tea
is nice. It's a good food pairing.
