    A form of Chinese green tea in which each leaf has been rolled into a small round pellet.

词源

Perhaps from the similarity in appearance to the pelletized forms of gunpowder. The Chinese name is 珠茶 (zhūchá, literally “pearl tea”). The derivation from Chinese 剛泡的 /刚泡的 (gāng pào de, “freshly brewed”) is likely a folk etymology.
