Awhile back ago a friend turned me on to Jasmine Downey Pearl Tea as a tea that not only gives you energy but it allows you to focus. As a programmer this tea delivered and I was able to do many programming sessions that were very successful,
My source for this tea was Peet's coffee and you can buy it on Amazon but I want to expand my knowledge of tea which is zero.
Are there any other teas that have what Jasmine Downey pearl tea does... Energy, focus, and a little high. I have tried Jasmine Pearl teas and it does not have the same effect. So magic must be in the word Downey.
Sorry for the noob question but I need my magic tea.

Everyone reacts differently to tea, so others can only give you recommendations based on their experience which, of course, may not be representative of your experience.
In my case, i sometimes get this effect from silver needle (make sure it's really hairy buds) but since you mentioned jasmine, i'd suggest you try this and see what works best for you:

To me, jasmine pearls does it, but since you said it doesn't work for you, maybe jasmine scented silver needle will do.

The reason the 'downey' jasmine gives you a bigger mental boost because it's likely made of younger tea leaves that contain more caffeine. Younger tea leaves contains more 'white hairs', hence 'downey'. ^_^
So for any kind of tea, younger and smaller leaves will give a bigger mental boost. This isn't just the case for Jasmine teas.
