“I say let the world go to hell, but I should always have my tea.”
-Fyodor Dostoyevsky
One of the best things about the cooler months is having hot tea on a more regular basis. You can really drink hot tea anytime, but enjoying a cup of tea in your PJs can become a nightly ritual to look forward to in fall and winter.
Here are some fantastic teas to try!
Harney & Sons
African Autumn – Delicious flavor! This is an herbal tea made with Rooibos, a South African red bush, and flavored with orange and cranberry. Not only does it taste really good, it makes the whole room smell divine while your brewing it! A great choice for fall.
Love Life – Visit the Harney & Sons tasting room in Millerton, NY and you’ll be hooked. We can’t enough of this one. It’s a green tea with coconut, vanilla, and strawberry and it’s delicious!
Yogi – Honey Lavender Stress Relief – This is another Rooibos based tea. The lavender and chamomile make this one really soothing and relaxing. One you’ve had a cup, you’re ready for bed!
Good Earth – Sweet & Spicy – This tea has a really tasty cinnamon flavor and is equally good hot and cold. It doesn’t need any sugar so it’s a great one to drink if you’re watching your calories. Even if you’re not big on cinnamon, give it a whirl. It actually has a very similar flavor to the Chai Tea that Oprah recently released with Teavana.

P.S. – Did you know that George Orwell actually wrote an essay on crafting the perfect cup of tea called “A Nice Cup of Tea” back in 1946? Check it out…
