Keemun Black | Four Symbols Tea

Black Orchid | Mariage Frères

I'm always curious to know which tea will be the first tea that I review of the year. The tea doesn't necessarily have to be absolutely amazing but it obviously has to be good enough to inspire me to write about it on my blog so this year a tea gifted to me by a friend (by the way, my friends are always giving me free tea, it’s the best!) by the name of Black Orchid by Mariage Frères, is the very first tea that I am reviewing this year. And it's delicious. Click play to see m

Searching For Tea, In Tea Country - The Story

The African country of Cameroon produces and exports over 4 thousand tons of tea a year. This statistic, however, by no means reflects the Cameroonian people's love for tea as they don't really care for the beverage. When my trip to visit the Ndawara Tea Estate was ruined due to civil unrest, was I able to find tea in Cameroon? Tap play to find out!

3 Tea-Popsicle Recipes Celebrating the Last Few Days of Summer

Ok, I know we have a little over a month before summer 2017 is over, but I feel like something needs to be done about the fact that I’m sort of not looking forward to its end.

I feel as though I haven’t even participated fully in what summer has to offer this year! Well, I made tea-based Popsicles though and they're really delicious…you can’t
