Our Jiaogulan is the export high standart, which meets the European Minimum residue level(EMRL), and exports tons to Europe every year.
Preparing jiaogulan tea is quite simple. All that's needed is clean water and jiaogulan tea leaves.
Begin with heating water until it boils then remove it from the source of heat and let it cool for approximately 3 minutes.
Afterward, add 2-3 teaspoons of jiaogulan and let it steep for 10 minutes. Don't think you used soapy water to prepare your tea when the contents of your pot turn out to be soapy. This is actually good. It indicates that you have extracted maximum nutrients from the leaves. The soapy appearance is due to the presence of saponins, that react this way in water, in the leaves.
Enjoy your healthy tea when it is cold. Instead of throwing away the already used leaves, you could use them again or chew them.

This kind of tea is much better. I will order this again in the future, and I'd read my own review to have avoided the other product. And the shipping is so fast.

A great alternative to other non-caffeinated herbal teas. It has a sweetness and can be blended with tea. I've been blending it with white tea with good results.

I bought this tea, because it's effects are very similar to that of ginseng, only this tea is a lot cheaper and easier to prepare.
The tea is VERY sweet and can become bitter if you steep it too long.
I bought this tea for someone I know who has sleeping issues. She has been drinking it about 60-90 minutes before she went to sleep for the past few days and she has told me that she sleeps a lot better now. I was actually surprised how positive she was about this tea, even though she did not like the flavor.
5/5 rating.
