✨Advent Calendar season is almost here! (You sti ✨Advent Calendar season is almost here! (You still have time to get yours if you haven’t for this year).⁣ ⁣ Even if you don’t celebrate Christmas, it is a great opportunity to try different teas and explore from several companies who offer them (if you not into the countdown, wait for after season sales!).⁣ ⁣ 💓 I have my favorites for this year ➡️ (link in bio!). ⁣ ⁣ Did you get one? If so, which one did you get or are excited to try?
⚡️*𝐅𝐑𝐄𝐄 𝐒𝐀𝐌𝐏𝐋𝐄𝐒 𝐀𝐋𝐄𝐑𝐓*⚡️ (pay $1 for shipping)⁣ ⁣ I don’t think I can live without Matcha 🍵(can you?).⁣ ⁣ 🤔 If someone came to me and asked if I would like to try GREAT quality Matcha for FREE, heck yes I would! ⁣ ⁣ For real, if you want to try 3 different and excellent types of Matcha from @naokimatcha for FREE (just pay $0.99 for shipping) go to the link in my bio (𝘯𝘢𝘰𝘬𝘪𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘤𝘩𝘢.𝘤𝘰𝘮/𝘱𝘶𝘳𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘴𝘦/𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘤𝘩𝘢-𝘴𝘢𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘳-𝘱𝘢𝘤𝘬) and order with the code 𝐍𝐀𝐎𝐊𝐗𝐓𝐂𝐂. ⁣ You’ll get 3 sachets of different blends: Superior Ceremonial Blend, Fragrant Yame Blend, and Chiran Harvest (my favorite! So smooth, with a buttery texture, and sweet, nutty, umami flavor)⁣ ⁣ Great for drinking on their own, in the morning or for that post-lunch slump (my energy pill 💊 !) or for making a hot or iced latte. ⁣ 💡Share with your friends so they can try it too!⁣ ⁣ I personally love, drink and recommend @naokimatcha a lot and love collaborating with them because they have really good Matcha 💚 if it’s good, I gotta spread the word!⁣ ⁣ Lmk if you’ve tried any of these blends
A new tea book is out and it’s by my friend Nico A new tea book is out and it’s by my friend Nicole from @teaformeplease !! 🎊🎉⁣ ⁣ I’m super happy to be one of the first to get this book (you can get yours on Amazon - release day May 17th).⁣ ⁣ ✔️ It’s full of super fun tea based drink recipes and some baked goods too. You can find iced, hot, lattes, cocktails & mocktails and boba too. It’s a great book for tea lovers who would like to explore more ways to enjoy it and learn how versatile tea is. ⁣ ⁣ If you’re building a tea book library 📚 , this one is a must, and a great book to gift to any tea lover 💜.⁣ ⁣ 🔥 Congratulations again Nicole on this amazing achievement!
Over a month into Spring 🌸 and I can see my te Over a month into Spring 🌸 and I can see my tea preferences starting to change. I’ve been drinking fresher feeling and more cooling teas, such as green, lightly oxidized Oolong, etc. (Here I’m enjoying a lovely Dragonwell green tea).⁣ ⁣ Now that I live in FL, so many people ask how can I drink tea with the heat, but when inside I’m always always drinking tea, same as before! Still, cooling teas can be great to regulate body temperature and even reduce the perceived heat 🥵.⁣ ⁣ 💝 Love serving tea to friends who come by my place for any reason. This lovely kettle + cups set is from @kitchen_kite and I LOVE it. It has a big stainless steel infuser to steep the tea and 4 delicate double-walled glass small cups to serve tea. So elegant! (It is also stovetop safe and dishwasher safe) #gifted ⁣ ⁣ What have you been drinking this Spring?
👉🏻Here’s a super interesting one:⁣ Sweet 👉🏻Here’s a super interesting one:⁣ Sweet potato plant leaves tea 😮 . It’s a herbal tea made from sweet potato plants in the Laoshan district in China, and processed similarly to black tea.⁣ It’s the first time I tried it and I was blown away by it. I love trying rare teas and herbal infusions and this was a special one! ⁣ ⁣ 🔎It is roasted 5, yes FIVE times to stop oxidation, so it’s a very time consuming tea to produce. Farmers in the area are shifting from harvesting crops to making tea because it’s more profitable as demand for this type of tea is increasing 🥔.⁣ ⁣ ☕️ I brewed it at 200•F and it had a strong sweet potato and savory aroma. I would have expected more sweetness to it but I was surprised with its brightness and how soupy/brothy it tastes. I also found some cooked spinach notes. Overall a fantastic experience ⭐️. ⁣ ⁣ I got this tea from @verdanttea (#gifted) which I sincerely can’t recommend enough.⁣ 💚They are a truly transparent company, which I know many people appreciate tremendously, and pick their partners (farming families) carefully according to their values (sustainability, quality & craftsmanship, etc). They honor them by highlighting their teas and stories and focus on them and their teas rather than their own brand.⁣ They carry AMAZING tea & teaware! ⁣ Have you ever tried this tea❓
Happy last Matcha Monday 🍵 of the year! Wishing Happy last Matcha Monday 🍵 of the year! Wishing you all a wonderful 2022 filled with joy and health 🙌🏼.⁣ ⁣ Matcha is one of my favorite things to help boost my energy⚡️. Besides loving its flavor, color and preparation process and ceremony, the calm alertness and energy that it provides is so appreciated! ⁣ ⁣ I love a Matcha latte in the morning and a traditional Matcha cup/bowl after lunch to get over that slump😊.⁣ ⁣ Do you take Matcha to boost your energy or just because you like it? 💚
👋Happy Monday!⁣ I wanted to share about one o 👋Happy Monday!⁣ I wanted to share about one of the most luxurious tea gifts I’ve ever received. If you’re looking to really 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬 someone and want to splurge, then I absolutely recommend this @samovartea gift box (You, Me and a Cup of Tea).⁣ ⁣ It comes with a 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 well curated variety of 5 loose leaf teas, including a herbal blend that works amazing as a cold brew and a chocolate Pu-erh that makes a killer latte!⁣ ⁣ It also comes with one of my favorite tea brewing accessories, the brewing teapot, a tea scoop and a lovely tea guide with brewing directions.⁣ ⁣ Pictured is one of my favorite teas of the box, California Persian: a black tea blend with cardamom, rose blossoms, jasmine and orange zest. It is a beautiful, elegant and well balanced blend that works perfectly well for an afternoon tea setting. It has strong rose 🌹 and some citric notes (I like brewing it at 195 F for 3 minutes).⁣ ⁣ Again, I was wowed by the luxurious tea experience of this box #gifted. Everything is so well put together and the packaging is designed with an amazing eye for aesthetics and attention to detail.⁣ ⁣ Would you like this as a gift? (Hint: I promise you would! 😜)
🤔 How many of you doubt about buying certain te 🤔 How many of you doubt about buying certain teas online because you’re not sure you’ll like them?⁣ Or how about that guilty feeling of ‘I REALLY (this time really!) shouldn’t buy anymore tea? (Would getting sample sizes make you feel better? 😜)⁣ ⁣ 💡 I put together a list of companies that offer very reasonably priced (and some even FREE 💸 ) tea samples for you to try before you commit to buying larger quantities (𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐊 𝐈𝐍 𝐁𝐈𝐎).⁣ ⁣ This is also great for people who want to get deeper into tea and want to try many different types without having to invest too much.⁣ ⁣ ✨ I wish I had a resource like this one back in the day when I was starting with my tea romance. Now you have it, enjoy!
Does this Monday feel super slow or is it me? 🙌 Does this Monday feel super slow or is it me? 🙌🏼 I’m recharging my energy this morning with a delicious latte from @favatea ‘s holiday sampler (#gifted). This tea is called Frosty’s Brew and it is a black te with white chocolate and orange… very indulgent! I feel the holiday season calls for exploring blends that I wouldn’t try often and of course, making them into lattes! This sampler box had several teas that make great lattes, even some Rooibos ones that my kids enjoyed! (After my 6-yo son tried a tea latte he would’t go back to regular tea! 😂) 💡 Remember: for lattes use at least double the amount of tea that you would usually use to make a regular cup. We’re looking to make a concentrate. Always add more leaves, not more time!
✨Matcha tasting time 🍵 This was a fun one! @ ✨Matcha tasting time 🍵 This was a fun one! @naokimatcha launched a very limited tasting set of 3 Matcha where only 1 will be added to their line. The blends are named after their region of origin: Uji, Wazuka and Nishio. It was really hard to pick a favorite because all 3 were delicious, fresh and good quality Matcha (#gifted). But overall my favorite was Uji Harmony: It was delightfully sweet, smooth but thick and creamy with little grassiness and a perfect umami balance. Its color is a bright, vibrant green that only reflect freshness and quality. The two other blends were excellent as well, I found the Wazuka blend great for beginners because it was less umami, smooth and ‘cleaner’. Have you tried any of these? (Get their Matcha tasting set with 20% off on their website)
I’ve been obsessed 🤩 about Nepalese Black tea I’ve been obsessed 🤩 about Nepalese Black teas lately, and when this came in the mail I was soooo happy!⠀ ⠀ I got a new #teasubscriptionbox to try (#gifted 🎁) and I was very excited about their concept. @atlasteaclub does monthly boxes focused on a single origin and aims to take the customer through a journey around the world 🌍. In my box came a Black tea, Kumari Gold (pictured) and a White tea. You can choose 1 or 2 teas with your subscription plan and each tea pouch contains fresh and good quality leaves 🌱 and a brewing guide. There’s also a beautiful postcard that comes in the box with information about the current month’s origin.⠀ ⠀ On to the tea ☕️ ➡️ This Kumari Gold was sweet and smooth with strong cooked fruit notes and some slight woodiness. It is delicate and elegant, like manny Nepalese Black teas.⠀ ⠀ If you haven’t tried Nepalese teas, I would recommend you to try its Black tea. (Try 190-195 F for 3.30 min)
Hi everyone! It’s been a while since I posted. I Hi everyone! It’s been a while since I posted. I recently moved to FL and that was my focus for a few months, so inevitably I went a little MIA… ⁣ ⁣ Anyway, I’m back with a super yummy recipe: White Chocolate Matcha Salami 🍵💚⁣ ⁣ Have you ever had chocolate Salami? If you haven’t, don’t worry, it doesn’t have any meat, it’s a dessert! It’s called salami because of its appearance ☺️. ⁣ ⁣ I took a classic and reinvented it with a favorite combo: Matcha and white chocolate. ⁣ It takes very little time to make and no baking is involved (just a little stovetop). I’m sure you’ll love it. ⁣ ⁣ ➡️ For the recipe, click the link in bio (pls tag me if you make it!)

BREWING TIP:

One of my favorite ways to brew loose leaf tea is with this Simple Brew infuser teapot. It lets the leaves ‘dance’ and unfurl with all the space they need.
