Gardenia Green Tea – Golden Clear with a Fresh, Floral Taste
梔子綠茶 — 金黃清透，花香清新

Gardenia Green Tea (梔子綠茶) beautifully blends refreshing green tea with the subtle, elegant aroma of gardenia blossoms. The tea brews to a naturally golden hue, offering a smooth and gentle flavour that is neither overly bitter nor astringent. Each sip reveals a delicate floral fragrance balanced with the crisp freshness of green tea, finishing with a light, natural sweetness.

Featuring a refined floral tea profile similar to the modern tea styles popularised by brands such as Molly Tea (茉莉奶白), Tea White (東西茶白), Hey Tea (喜茶) and CHAGEE (霸王茶姬), this Gardenia Green Tea is ideal for creating premium floral milk teas, fresh milk teas and signature tea-based beverages.

Perfect served hot or iced, it is a refreshing and versatile tea with a clean, aromatic taste suitable for a wide range of beverage applications.

Frequently asked questions

How do I brew Gardenia Green Tea?

Use 1 part tea to 25 parts hot water and 15 parts ice. For 20g of leaves that is 500ml of water at 80°C and 300g of ice.

Heat the water to 80°C, stir the leaves in, cover and steep for 8 minutes, strain the leaves out, then add the ice to chill. Brewing hot and chilling with ice is what holds the aroma — a cold steep never pulls it out.

What is the shelf life, and how should I store it?

Unopened, 24 months from the production date printed on the bag.

Store in a dry, cool place away from strong smells and direct sunlight. Reseal the foil bag after each use — tea picks up odours quickly. The best-before date is printed on every bag and every carton.

How many drinks can I make from one 500g bag?

About 66 drinks, based on 300ml of brewed tea per 700ml cup.

One 500g bag makes about 20 litres of finished tea at the 1:25:15 ratio — 500g of leaves, 12.5 litres of hot water and 7.5kg of ice.

What are the bag specifications?

One bag holds 500g.

Order single units, or by the carton for wholesale pricing. Stock is held in our Melbourne and Sydney warehouses.

What else can I use Gardenia Green Tea for?

Premium floral milk tea, fruit tea, cheese tea and iced tea.

It brews golden rather than green, and finishes without the astringency most green teas bring to a milk tea.
