Q: What's the Chinese name for the kind of tea that "blooms" when you steep it?
Sorry for the overly-specific question. I have a friend back home who wants me to bring her some of this kind of tea (not sure if there are different varients or not). I know what she's talking about and I've had it before, but I have no idea what its called or how to describe it to a tea shop person.
Any tea connoisseurs out there know what in the hell I'm talking about? Thanks.

the tea that they used in the movie Marie Antoinette was a Jasmine Tea. When the Queen poured the tea into the cups, the flower bloomed. 茉莉花茶 Mòlìhuā chá ...the kind that has the whole dried blossom in it
