Around here, Chinese restaurants tend towards jasmine tea

Jasmine oolong specifically? (I read once that oolong was the traditional kind of tea to drink after/during a Chinese meal, but haven't seen any sources for it.)

I don't know. It tastes flowery, is light-colored, and doesn't get bitter if it sits for a while.

Light-colored? Probably a kind of green, then; oolongs are usually pretty dark-colored (but on the other hand, greens can get bitter if they sit for a while).

It's possible that I don't leave jasmine tea that long.
