Yangshuo Jiatianxia Oil Tea

　　 Yangshuo Jiatianxia Oil Tea is located at the Sunshine 100 storefront. Known for its delicious taste, it is one of Yangshuo’s famous local snacks. Normally, when we relax, we might brew a fine cup of Longjing or a sweet cup of Biluochun, savoring it slowly. But in Yangshuo, besides these usual tea-brewing methods, there's a unique way to enjoy tea — “oil tea.” So-called oil tea is tea that is cooked with oil, making it more flavorful than tea brewed with just boiling water. Its unique preparation process is as follows: first, tea leaves picked during Grain Rain are soaked in water, then placed in a pot and stir-fried with chili peppers, ginger, and garlic. A small amount of water is added while stirring until the tea flavor is fully released. Finally, a large pot of water is added, and once the tea comes to a boil, it’s ready to serve. It is typically paired with fragrant peanuts, fried dough twists, and other condiments, resulting in a deliciously aromatic and tasty dish. When you visit Yangshuo, tasting the local specialty — “oil tea” — is a must; otherwise, you might as well not have come. So be sure to stop by Jiatianxia Oil Tea for a taste — it will definitely be worth your trip. Address: Sunshine 100 storefront, Yangshuo. Main offerings: Snacks. Signature dish: Oil tea.
