It’s one of the craziest times of year, but also some of the most meaningful times for our memories to hold on to. Take some of the pressure off, and let tea weave its magic into the holidays for you.

1. STEEP! Begin all things with a cup of tea; bliss will follow. Then take on the world.

2. GIFT! Tea is a unique, personal and healthy gift for anyone on your list. It’s the gift that steeps on giving.

3. RELAX! Slow down and breathe. Take time for enjoying a cup of your favorite tea. Perhaps our Peaceful Pathways or AnxieTEA to take the edge off.

4. COOK! Infuse Lapsang Souchong to add a bit of smokiness to meats, Cranberry Apple Fruit blend added to the stuffing; or steeped Ti Kuan Yin Oolong as a soup base.

5. HEAL! Get antioxidants to defend the body and ward off bugs through the cold season. There's nothing like a soothing cup of hot tea for the sniffles or sore throat!

6. PARTY! Share with family and friends at gatherings by serving tea. Everyone does green bean casserole; be different. Hot Toddies and cocktails made with tea blends are perfect ice breakers.  

7. ENERGIZE! Drive up your oomph with tea. Santa needs help assembling all those toys. The caffeine from tea stimulates the endocrine system rather than overstimulating the nervous system. Try our focus-enhancing Minty Mocha Mate Madness or our high-octane Newport News Shipbuilders Brew for a natural, crash-free energy boost!

There’s many more than seven ways to infuse tea into the holiday season. Feel free to hit us up for ideas, or share your own right here!
