Combining tradition and science to create natural and effective remedies.
I really enjoy sharing good food with people. It is very similar to my love of creating and sharing good tea with people. I don’t have the time or spoons to properly cook as often as I would like to, but I manage from time to time. This past weekend Continue Reading →
‘Coyote’s Caravan’ was an attempt to fix a problem we’ve had for several years. The only organic Russian Caravan tea we had access to is sometimes problematic to keep in stock. The supplier is always very apologetic when they are out and we have to wait, and they always try Continue Reading →
Due to a variety of factors, some positive, some not, I came to a remarkably obvious conclusion recently. I should keep blog content (and thus the work required to create it) delineated by some sort of schedule. Which will have the side benefit of letting you know when to expect Continue Reading →
Fiaren Caravan was inspired by a micro fiction. At the point it was blended, it held position as “potentially oddest point of inspiration for a Desert Sage Natural Tea.” It has since been displaced by a tea inspired by one of those odd meme name quiz things… but I digress. Continue Reading →
‘Dark Metamorphosis’ began as an intrusive tea idea that insisted on being made before I made the thing I had originally wanted to blend. (The worst part being that I haven’t actually gone back to make the original tea idea as yet.) The conversation that inspired ‘Lovely Day’ had also Continue Reading →
The idea for ‘Abe’s OddiTea’ came from a grocery run and a picture of a candybar. Most of the time Mister Tea does the outside of the house errands on his own. Part of this is that being in a car can be fairly painful for me, and part of Continue Reading →
‘The Blues Berries’ was inspired by a conversation with one of the denizens of my tiny little corner of the Twitterverse. In the end, this wasn’t the tea she had been looking for, as the preference would have been for a much stronger blueberry flavour. (Likely surprising no one who Continue Reading →
The story of ‘Eureka: Smoky Monkey’ began several years ago. A customer had purchased our ‘Tea of the Month Club,’ and when he filled out the survey he listed off his favourite teas. Golden Monkey. Silver Needle. Practically everything on his list was a top of the line type of Continue Reading →
It probably took too long for us to realize that we could make a lime and coconut tea. The flavours get combined so frequently, that it really should have been an obvious blend, from the moment we had both ingredients in the toolbox. However, it wasn’t until I started playing Continue Reading →
‘Lovely Day’ was inspired by a conversation with one of our ‘Tea of the Month Club’ members. When we come close to the last month of tea, I always offer them the option of choosing their final tea. In this particular case, that offer turned into a conversation regarding the Continue Reading →
