  • 3 - Oolong Tea
  • 4 - Green Tea
  • 5 - Black Tea

  • 1 - Jasmine Tea

    Edit

    A classic choice, Jasmine tea's floral aroma beautifully offsets the rich, sweet flavor of mooncakes. Its light and refreshing taste cleanses the palate, preparing it for the next bite.

  • 2 - Pu-erh Tea

    Edit

    Known for its earthy flavor, Pu-erh tea is a robust choice that stands up well to the dense, sweet mooncakes. Its unique fermentation process results in a complex taste profile that can balance out the richness of the mooncake.

  • 3 - Oolong Tea

    Edit

    Oolong tea, with its wide range of flavors, is a versatile pairing for mooncakes. Lighter oolongs have a floral, creamy taste that complements the sweet filling, while darker oolongs offer a roasted, nutty flavor that contrasts nicely with the pastry.

  • 4 - Green Tea

    Edit

    Green tea is another excellent choice. Its subtle vegetal notes and slight bitterness provide a refreshing counterpoint to the sweet and heavy mooncakes. Plus, the antioxidants in green tea can help digest the rich food.

  • 5 - Black Tea

    Edit

    Black tea, especially those with fruity or sweet undertones, can match the sweetness of mooncakes. Its robust flavor and natural sweetness can complement the pastry, creating a harmonious blend of flavors.
