windcatcher 0 #1 April 11, 2006 I checked the local grocery store, Wal-mart, a health food store...I'm running out of options. ( And no I don't want to check online just to buy one box of tea). How come no one sells Jasmine tea? It tastes better than green tea. Anyone know where I can get a box? I just had some last weekend for the first time at a Thai restaurant, and Jasmine tea is awesome! Help.Pretty please? Mother to the cutest little thing in the world...

But honestly, if you are running out of options that you have checked locally, how in the world are most of us who are not from your area going to help unless we point you to online stores? Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
missg8tordivr 0 #4 April 11, 2006 CLICKY Not sure where you are, but take a look and see if they have a store near where you live. They have a great variety of flavors. Edit to add: Look under the Green Tea section.*** F LORIDA! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
windcatcher 0 #5 April 11, 2006 I'm in Arkansas right now, but will be headed back to South Dakota for the summer. I haven't seen a "Whole Foods" store in Sioux Falls, and I'm not familiar with much of what's here in Arkansas. I'm outta here next month. But thanks for the help Mother to the cutest little thing in the world... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
windcatcher 0 #6 April 11, 2006 . I thought maybe someone here might know if there is some kind of national chain store where they regularly buy Jasmine tea Mother to the cutest little thing in the world... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amazon 7 #7 April 11, 2006 Just try to find a local asian market locally.. they have areas in most larger cities that cater to that aspect of the market. You can find all kinds of new things to try there.

This thread really reminds me of this thread, only this one wasn't posted in jest. edited to add: I get some good teas from Pearl River Mart. You can order online from them -- check out this link. I recommend the FooJoy Jasmine tea, but pretty much any of the teas they sell in that store are of decent quality. Be humble, ask questions, listen, learn, follow the golden rule, talk when necessary, and know when to shut the fuck up.
