Even if you’re not lucky enough to be in lockdown with Mom, you can still give her a heart-warming day to remember. We can help you cover all the bases with chocolate, flowers, wine, and more.
1. Call with the Whole Family.
You can still show Mom how tall you’re getting via video. Set a time with the whole family and encourage them to try out their equipment in a video chat with you beforehand.
If Mom doesn’t have a video-enabled device, ship her one with the video conferencing software already installed and walk her through a trial call before the big day. Check out our Virtual Tea Party blog post for more tips on hosting a group chat.
2. Send Drinkable Flowers.
Many of our loose leaf tea blends include flowers for color and flavor. Our Blue Butterfly Garden herbal includes butterfly pea blossoms that brew up blue! You can even change the liquor to purple by adding lemon juice.
To make tea time extra special, give mom a show with our Discover Flowering Tea Sampler. Each tea is hand-tied with real dried flowers that “bloom” when you add hot water. After she drinks the tea, she can place the blossom in a glass of cold water and enjoy its beauty a few more days.
3. Treat Mom Every Month.
Our Tea of the Month Memberships come in 3, 6, and 12 month subscriptions. The first week of each month we send two unique two ounce selections. Choose from Green Tea, Caffeine-Free, Iced Tea, or World Tea.
4. Give Her Chocolate with Tea.
No special day is complete without cocoa, which is why many of our tea blends contain chocolate. Our black tea blend Berry Me in Chocolate features berries and cinnamon with rich cocoa peel and cocoa bits.
5. Send Her an Everyday Joy.
Remind Mom you’re thinking of her every day as she reaches for her new favorite cup. We particularly love the classic design and pizzazz of the Fragment Color Retro Tea Cup, inspired by the work of Dutch painter Piet Mondrian’s Tableau series.
6. Introduce Her to a DIY Drink.
If your mom enjoys trying new things, or if she’s already a fan of boba, she’ll love our new DIY Bubble Milk or Bubble Tea Kit. Each kit comes with everything she’ll need to make 4 servings – including cups, lids, and straws.
7. Spike Her Tea.
Infuse a bottle of spirits with tea for yourself and send one to Mom so you can toast together. It’s easy and tasty to add tea to alcohol or simple syrup for a fun new twist on cocktails and mocktails. Be sure to check with your state for guidelines on shipping alcohol.
Send our wine-inspired teas to share the flavor of spirits without the alcohol. Choose from Sonoma Sunrise white tea, Sparkling Strawberry Wine fruit tisane, or Mulled Wine Spice tisane.
Bonus: Give Her Freedom.
If you don’t have time to stop by the store to pick something up, remember we can always mail a gift card to be used in our Omaha store, or you can choose an online-only gift certificate for people out of state.
