Combining tradition and science to create natural and effective remedies.
This is the first tea we have created due to a hashtag. Yes, you read that right. A hashtag. One of my mutuals on Twitter (and a fellow spoonie, to boot) kept sending out tweets with the #365 teas hashtag. I initially assumed it was a specific company, and had Continue Reading →
Audio for Entire Page: How do you source and choose your ingredients? We look for organic. We prefer fair trade, when applicable/available. Even when we have to resort to non-organic, we make sure that nothing has been added. We don’t have any “misc” ingredients. What you see, both Continue Reading →
I’ve mentioned a few times in a few places that I love our Tea of the Month Club. There are a number of different reasons for this. Part of it is that I really do enjoy curating the tea selections – especially when our survey has been filled out. There’s Continue Reading →

Approaching our FAQ page made me realize that we should have a complete list of everything we use. I’ve split the ingredients list into categories, to hopefully make it a little easier to deal with the length of the list.

It’s weird how one event can turn into an idea for a blog post, and then, as you start to really think it through, balloons out into a series. This all started with a rotisserie chicken. As I started figuring out what I wanted to say about what Mister Tea Continue Reading →
