Doesn’t it seem like fall comes as quickly as it goes? Close your eyes for a second and you just might miss it. Slowing down with a cup of tea is a great way to make sure you take in the all the autumnal sights, sounds and smells while you still can.
In all honesty, there are more reasons to drink tea year-round than we can squeeze into one tiny blog post, but here are four essential ones to remind you to restock the pantry before fall flits away.
Your Joni Mitchell Records Called…
There’s something about fall that really brings on a contemplative mood, don’t you agree? Another year passes by, the leaves start to change and you’re suddenly reminded that nothing lasts forever. Cue endless sighing. While you prepare to peer out the window for long stretches of time that leave even your cat worried, tea is the perfect companion. Don’t forget to bust out some of those old records to keep you company, too.
Falling Back in With Old Friends and Making New Discoveries
If you keep a close eye on our tea offerings throughout the year, you already know that we like to keep things interesting by introducing new blends every season. Are you excited to see some old friends back in action? Loose leaf blends like Pumpkin Spice Black Tea and Almond Apple Delight are like autumn in a cup. Drink up while you can!
Getting Spooky
Instead of a typical Halloween party, host a terrifying tea party instead! Brew a big cauldron of your favorite blend and tell your guests to come as Victorian-era ghosts for a seance and soiree. You can make things really fun with some ghoulish treats, too. Who says you can’t be sophisticated and scary at the same time?
The Gift That Keeps on Brewing
‘Tis the season to cozy up with your favorite brew, but a freshly brewed cup is even nicer when you share it in the spirit of giving. Fall means that the gift-giving season is rearing up again. But don’t let yourself feel overwhelmed by the idea of your massive to-do list! Instead, think of every gift as a chance to share something you love–like tea! There are lots of great gift ideas at our online store. Start planning now and get ahead of the game!
