Well, the baseline jasmine tea is the yellow box stuff... used to be marked
Fujian National Exports Co but I think the same factory is badging it under
the Foojoy name. Available at your local chinatown for maybe five bucks a
pound.

There are far better jasmine teas out there, and there are worse ones too,
but this is what you'll normally get served in a restaurant if you ask for
jasmine tea. It's green tea with jasmine petals in it, nothing else.
